Can this lathe use collets? Up to what size?

That is the wrong question. The question should be "can this mill use collets?" As I recall, mine was shipped with a set, so the answer must be yes. It's all in how you set it up. I mostly use the large jacobs chuck together with my set of end mills.

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.

Yes Brad it will. I am not sure which tools your using but if you are using a Dremel you may have to purchase additional collet nuts for the size 3/32. if you do not have them any Lowe's or Home Depot will carry them. Brad just a small WARNING If you are using a Dremel other than the hand held 7300 or an equivalent you will not want to use them on your person. Some of the Dremels carry to much power for body use.

if you can unscrew the cap behind the collet nut on your tools. It will fit with additional parts. The shiny connector on the shaft will screw to your tool.

Makita doe's make different size collets for this tool. Contact them at their customer service number and tell them your problem. I have this tool and it only came with one collet. I had to order another. I don't remember which one it came with but now I have a 1/8th and a 1/4 in. collet. It's a great tool for getting into tight places. Try taking the collet out and run some kind of a tapered punch or steel rod through the center hole. Maybe it's got a burr or the tangs need to be sprung open. The tool should have come with the 1/4 in collet.

any adapter from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 8 dpi. I also have a nova lathe and this adapter works great. you might want to consider a reducer to 1 inch 8 dpi as there are a wider range of accessories.

I don't know what spindle size your lathe has. the csc3000 has a 1'' if your craftsman has a 1'' then no adapter. if it has a three quarter inch then you would need 3/4'' to 1'' adapter. hope this helps. james

Yes it will work, you just need the correct bushing size to mount to the spindle of your lathe. I believe your spindle is 1" x 8 tpi

The owners manual says it can accept 1/4" and 3/8" collets. It comes with a 1/4" collet and I bought a 50 piece 1/4" shank bits for less than $75.00. I just looked on Amazon and they have an assortment of sets at various prices. I bought the Neiko set and have used it quite a bit. The Makita kit you are looking at is just fabulous. All the extra bases are really handy. I am so glad I purchased it.

The shank on these bits is 0.0445" & will not fit a standard Dremel tool collet (0.125"). Dremel does makes an adjustable chuck that works nicely though. They may also sell smaller collets, not sure about this though.

I would say any size up to 12". The lathe's tail stock is very hard to tighten, but it runs well and gets the job done

I dont know if the collet in your dremel is 1/2 inch and if it is. You can use it with..

You could get a bigger collet, but I'd recommend replacing the original w/ Dremel 4486 MultiPro Keyless Chuck. ($8.13) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000302ZV/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) I love mine & it will accommodate most Dremel accessories.

Yes. The collet grips the bit out near the tip. The only issue would be very short bits with a hex base...if there is a such thing. Standard bits like in the set you buy at Home Depot or Harbor Freight with the hex base so they can be swapped out in a screw-shooter...no problem. In any case, buy the one with the 3/4" collet. Costs more now, but saves in the long run.

Karl, you will need the Dremel 4486 Quick Change Collet. The 4486 collet is used with the Dremel 4000. The 4486 accepts all accessory bits with 1/32" to 1/8" shanks. Good luck. Jim D.

I think there is one available .... I made one for mine ... fastened 2x4's on the legs and really heavy casters (to raise the ways to my preferred height) from Home Depot on the 2x4's. One additional note - as the lathe is 220V you might want to consider a really long heavy power cable (mine is 20 ft) - saves having to rewire the shop more than necessary. It's a great lathe - you'll never need another.

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
