ArcEuroTrade do a small catalogue but most of their stuff is on the web site, I've bought from both RDG and ArcEuroTrade and received excellent service from both. I don't believe that RDG are currently listing anything bigger than ER16.

The items I have purchased from ArcEuroTrade have been excellent quality and at very keen prices, they appear to put some effort into picking their suppliers. The collets, drills, centres, scales and chucks I have bought from them have all been excellent. I buy mostly from the various shows they attend but I understand they do an excellent postal service as well. Ketan Swali, the owner, posts on here occasionally and appears extremely friendly and knowledgeable when I've spoken to him at the shows

Best regards

Point to note with Arc Euro is that Ketan has gone walk about for two weeks so there is no one there to ship orders.

Not that little. Just a medium pull. When opening it, it should go loose with a jerk (mill in one of the lower backgears). The drawbar on my mill got twisted by some idiots that closed it to much. No, the idiot was not me, it is at least second hand.

I am surprised Axminster did not respond; I have bought things from them mail order several times and I have found them excellent. However, they do major in woodworking and general building tools, with a modest selection of engineering stuff. Their catalogue is online at

I have just bought (on ebay) one of the very fairly priced Deckel ER3

adapters and a set of 18 collets which include all sizes up to 13mm then 16 and 20 mm for milling cutters, and also all the imperial size for milling cutters up to 3/4". Total cost just over £100 plu postage.
