    7 x 10 HF collet question

    Can someone give me info on collets for this mini lathe? Not sure what I need to change out my 3 jaw to a collet system, I'm turning flashlights and cannot have any marks on the work. Any help in this area would be great!

    why not turn an aluminum collet that fits in your 3 jaw chuck and around your flash light? Just a round tube with a slit. This is all I did when I turned my ball screws but I used three slits.
