You remember seeing the "lathe vs mill" as first purchase thread. Well I got the lathe first and you were all right….got the mill soon after. I got a HF mini mill which I'm having a lot of fun learning as much as possible.
My buddy, who's a machinist of sorts, says "save your money and don't bother getting collets for the mill. I've been using just a chuck since I got mine, and it's been fine."
So….why do I need collets? Maybe I should send them back to LM and get something more useful.
