Machining an ER32 collet chuck

Video Description

Today we are machining an ER32 collet. This tool will help press fitting thin long rods in a shop press. The collet chuck will be fitted to the end of the piston and there's a jig on the press plate to keep things repeatedly in place (and square). The chuck has no through hole as the the bottom of the ER taper will be pushing the rods down, not the collet.
