    1/4" Laminate Trimmer Collet Adapters?

    Hey everyone!

    I was like, about to hit 'buy it' on the bosch colt single speed laminate router, when I noticed that the less sturdy looking rotozip tools nontheless include 3 collet sizes, 1/6, 3/16, 1/4. This would be very nice!

    The question I have is how difficult is it to find\make accurate adapters for this? Surely someone has marketed this product?

    ALternately, I would pay someone with great lathe skills to make me some. My enco lathe and my cheap dial guage, and my total lack of training still fail me half the time!

    I know I have seen reference to these in threads.. But cannot find it.


    Also, my little byline used to say 'evil robot', now it says machinist. I was much happier being an 'evil robot', and would like to go back, but cannot figure out how to change it! (even though i obviousely changed it to evil robot in the past).

    Nevermind.

    I purchased one, and a router speed control.

    I hope to replace the speed control variable resistor with a digital potentiometer.

    Thanks for the good tip.
