Wondering if any one can tell me why this would occur?
Using a Triton TRA001 table mounted and a muscle chuck. Passing a piece a 350mm length of US Maple along the fence to create a 4mm deep groove. What starts as 4 mm progresses to nearly 7.
Tried to remove the collet with the idea of cleaning it but can't budge it so used a piece of foil as a shim to get a tighter fit between the bit and the collet. This seemed to work but is a temporary fix to my mind and thoughts?
Is there a technique to removing the collet?
Thanks in anticipation.......
Cheers, Kerry
