                  just be careful not to pull the bearing out of the front of the motor

                        need to buy a upgrade collet form the store here, they all break after a while real brittle

                        grade 8 hardned

                        strong but brittle no flex or stretch to it

                        good luck lube the shaft while it is out

                            the collet fingers are known for breaking
