I have very low tool height availability on my mill and want to find some low to zero clearance BT30 holders.

Specifically, I need to find a 1/2" holder for a digital probe. I've seen Shars sells one for $80 Untitled.jpg I still might buy it then just grind the arbor stick-out flush with the locking collars. Thought I'd see what you guys have first though.

Does anyone have a similar or shorter one they would sell?
 
MariTool has what looks to be the same. Lyndex makes an ER20 holder that is flush with the flange, but the nut is proud .3". Other than the Lyndex tool mentioned MariTool is the place to go for stubby-ish BT30 holders.
 
Be careful with ER20 flush holders in BT30. The nut will distort the tool holder taper. Wall thickness is too thin. But if for a digital probe it may not be an issue.
