Gary (or anyone else who knows)
Where did you get the INT 30 ER32 collet system. Been having a quick
look on the
web but this particular combination doesn't seem to be
listed in a lot of
places. I am probably also getting a bit confused
between att the different
standards e.g. is 30INt the same as ISO30.

I got mine, Bison/Toolmex brand, from my local tool shop when they had
an offer on in their flyer.

ISO 30 is a particular form of 30INT; subject to drawbar thead, all
ISO30 should fit 30int spindles.

I got mine from RDG Tools in Hebden Bridge, its made by Vertex. If
you're going to the Midlands Exhibition at the Fosse this year, I'm sure
they'll be there - they were last year.
INT30 is essentially the same as ISO30, but the drawbar threads are
different, I believe.

I believe there are other small differences which don't matter for
most purposes. ISO30 *always* has, AFAIK, M12 drawbar thread; 30 int
can be seen with all manner of threads.
