r8 on the g0704, ER, max a fat 6mm on the 6040, ER42 on the Sheldon but 
its down till I get the encoder fixed again.

I've a couple handfulls of TTS-ER32 adapters for the g0704 but no collets 
that small, stops at 1/16 for either set of those I have.

I don't think my ER32 stuff goes that big. Straight r8 might.

If you tighten all 3 holes several times.

But nothing I have in Jacobs style goes that small and I'd have to make 
spuds for them too. OTOH my midden heap/junk pile hasn't been well 
stirred recently either. 

Thanks Andy.
