I found mine on eBay for under $100 ... Not sure hat qualifies as inexpensive but it was a good investment. I purchased them from seller discount-tools .

Doc beat me to it .... Same seller!
These ones aren't the same seller but would seem to be a reasonable price.....

I have this exact set and I can honestly say I use them every time I turn on the lathe!
Most of them are going to be made in china unless they say different I use them in the er32 collet chuck I built and they work just fine. My measured run out was under a thou.

Yes, Kretzky is right .... The one I linked to isn't metric, my mistake!

I've got the same set and I use them daily. I got mine from eBay seller, 800 Watt. He has since moved to on to Amazon, but these sets above look just like mine and they work great.

I had spotted these earlier, but a little higher than I was looking for.
I did an EBay search before I posted, I guess I missed these because the picture only showed one collet (guess it would help if I read the description:redface
I had found some a litter less about a week ago, but I was skeptical about them being shipped from China.

This is the set I bought, it arrived within a week from Hong Kong! Which shocked me, guess that's why shipping appears high, though the set is cheaper. Note that this is a 19 piece metric set.

Try CTC Tools ER32 COLLET SET (19 PCS) #A07 for $57
Frieght was almost as much as the collet set, but that is to Australia. It may be cheaper to US.
The set is good for the price. Only fault was that some of the size numbers were barely visible.

Lenny this guy is just a couple miles from me and I plan on buying mine from him next week. I've spoken with him on the phone and he seams to be a reasonable seller. He doesn't have metric on hand but can get them.

What would be the best collet chuck to get?

Mike,
Can you find out if he will have the metric set anytime soon and the price? If they are the same price and he can get them, let me know and how to order them from him.

With the number of us looking for these sets you might be able to get a bulk discount. I would be interested in a metric set as well.

As would I. In fact, I would like both plus a quality chuck. I'm just getting to a point where I realize I need to have a collet chuck to move my PT forward.

One thing to note... some of these sets are 18 collets some are 19 (the metric ones I think).
All seem to be around $110+/- if you save on the collets, the shipping is higher, pricier collets, shipping is lower.
I may also be interested in a metric set.

Went ahead and ordered this set. Got a better deal with Make an Offer.

I bought mine from 800Watt when he was selling on e-bay. Had to look at them good because he would sell the same sets at different prices. The set I bought was $10 cheaper than his highest price for the same thing. I don't know why he did that. I also notice the price of them has really gone up over the past few years. I think I paid $60 with free shipping. Must be inflation.

800Watt is now AMTools. You can order the 18pc metric ER-32 collet set (this is the one I use most) at Penturning Penturner collets er32 metric er32.
I hope that helps,

I'm a novice and confused. I like the collets from discount-tools but what chuck do I put them into? Never used them before. I have a DVR [1 1/4"spindle,8 TPI] TKS for help.

You'll need a collet chuck similar to the one shown here The Beall Tool Company or here Apprentice Collet Chuck | Shop Supplies | Craft Supplies USA
