could you use an 1/8" collet?

have no idea - it was a gift for my son-n-law. check with a dealer would be my best advice.

No. This is a router, not a carving tool. Way to many RPM's to handle that small of shank with any pressure applied at all. Not only would it be a potential breakage of a bit shaft it would be a potential dangerous way to operate the tool. There is a reason that they do not offer it as an accessory...

DeWalt doesn't list a 1/8' collet as an option in the parts list. Personally, I think this router would have too much torque for a bit with an 1/8" shank.

It is an excellent router... have been using mine on a CNC router and 1/8" bits. I don't know if DeWalt offers a 1/8" collet, but I obtained a 1/8" collet from Precise Bits in Colorado... they have a kit which uses the same nut and comes with two collets 1/4" and 1/8." Precise bits is an outstanding company with great customer service, competitive prices and a wealth of information from chip loads to recommended speeds. http://www.precisebits.com/ Part no.DEEP-0611-83KIT

I don't believe they offer one. There are 1/8 to 1/4 inch adaptors out there be careful.

No you would need a different attachment piece to work on something that size. Check their website I believe they have what u need.

You'd be better off with a hacksaw than this. In a pinch, I might do 1/8" 6061 aluminum, but even then I'd have both my doubts and a spare motor on hand.

It will be outside the design specs (and building code) for the prodiuct. The rule of thumb is 1 foot per inch of rise so you really need an 8 foot ramp.

Hi there, if you take off the 'crows nest' tool rack you can just get 200mm or 8 inches under collet with burr well into chuck. Hope this helps.Rgds Barry

My unit came with the 1/4 and 1/2 inch Collete. I added a 3/8 inch Collete later which is handy.

An 1/8th inch bit is the biggest you will be able to use and that will just barely fit.

I measured from the bend to the bend and it was 1 7/8". It would probably fit.

You could use an adapter to take it up from quarter inch to 3/8 inch. I've driven lag bolts with it and it does fine.

Depends upon the manufacture , some are different spaced and size holes, as I found out.7/8 to 1 inch would be nice.

Yes 5/8" would be too much. Shim them and drive the screws through the shims if you have to but keep them at 1/2" clearance per side. They work Great.

I would use 3/8". You will need to purchase a barbed tube fitting 3/8" tube x 1/2 npt

I think you are limited to the 1/4" collet. Then again, it is a "compact" router so you don't want to use this great tool for heavy duty routing anyway (larger bits than 1/4"; and big jobs with harder woods). Check it out here: http://www.dewalt.com/tools/woodworking-routers-dwp611pk.aspx

Sorry not sure.... a 1/2 inch isn't really too much though i would think it would still work

Short answer is yes - When I bought my router it had both a 1/4" and 1/2" collet. I lost the 1/4" collet and needed to replace it - so that I could use bits with a 1/4" shank.

5/8 arbor is what I used. But it is fabric so would probably work on 1/2 inch also

Yes it will . But. you get alot of play in it. 3/32" chains will not fit 1/8" cogs,3/32" is narrower . it has to do with width of the chain and cog. I do recommend using a 3/32" cog with a 3/32 chain and the same with 1/8". It will save u from problems in the long run.
