01kay -- I have 19/32 -1 1/8 in 1/32" increments, plus 1 7/64 and 1 1/4.  Would love to have the full range in 1/64" increments, but that's a lot of extra $$$.  --  JohnP

Yeah I was think of that, this is more of a "5 Year Plan" thing, I'm figuring out what I would need first...

For the "kids", 15/32, then 1/2 through 1 3/16 in 64ths, 1 1/4, 1 3/8, 1 1/2 & then "my little freind" the 1 3/4 .  

Double the # of bits in common grip hole sizes (7/8, 61/64, 31/32, 1 1/32, 1 1/8, 1 1/4)

Endmills in 32nd's from 11/16 through 1".

oooo...

I'm jelous .

I could use a 7/16 probably once or twice a year, but the boss won't spring for the whole $15 is would cost for a carbide tipped one to fit a r8 collet.
