Does anyone know where I can find the specs for a 5C collet? I want to make a collet chuck for a lathe. The Machinery Handbook has some of the dimensions but not for the taper.
Thanks,
Dave

Thanks but that doesn't have the taper specs either.

Always 10 degrees.
Look up "Make your own Collet Chuck" in "Metalworking #1" (Village Press), page 56, by Pat Loop.

As long as we're at it, where can I find the dimensional data for 10mm collets as used in Derbyshire and/or Levin jeweler's lathes?
