New collets for Makita trim router

CNC Machines Shapeoko

I searched on line and was unable to find collets for my trim router. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Cam

If you mean the makita that used to be an option with the shapeoko, the precision collets are made by Elaire. You can order them in a range of inch and metric sizes. I recently got a 3/16" collet for a specialty tool that only came in that shank size.

The Carbide Compact Router and Makita RT0701/0700 use the same collets — ours will work on the Makita.

As @CatalystGilles noted, Elaire Corp. makes nice ones as well and they also work on either unit.

I get my set for the Makita from http://www.elairecorp.com/
They will have more sizes as you can see on their website.
