Re: Machining both ends (depth stop)?

Most collet chucks have a stop screw in them. Are you holding the
part in the spindle and holding the tool stationary? Just trying to
get some mental picture of what you're trying to achieve since I've
never seen ER collets used in the spindle of a lather as a workholding
collet.
