    Adding collars to endmills?

    How does one set the endmills to the correct depth during tool changes? I require 6mm roughing and 3mm finishing passes.

    I can only think to add collars to the endmill but will that throw off the balance too much?

    You can but endmills with colour coded collars which look great but don't use the same shaft diameter which would be preferable nor do they look to be even set to the same distance.

    How do people achieve tool changes?
