I'm building a PCB drill as mentioned in another thread.

If you have a Dremel, a pair of vernier/digital/dial calipers and a spare 30 seconds, can I ask a favour?

Can you please measure the OUTER diameter of the 3.2mm collet?  The little attachment that goes into the end of the dremel, and you put the drill bit in it...  I'm after the measurement of the bottom part as highlighted below



Thanks heaps

Mr. G.

If nobody else does it first, I can try to remember to take my calipers home with me after work and measure mine tonight.

My shanks on collets measure 0.170".  I would think the ID of the chuck is 0.187" or 3/16" nominal.
