Makita RT0700 End mills: Import Ryan’s 1/8” collet and end mills, or buy 6 or 8 mm end mills in EU/China?

i use that with standard makita…you need just put this part in your makita collet

Those do not fit a Makita Router. This is what an ER adapter is. 5b3b1e9b8b4a6490ec85e94f578547c66c27b842_2_375x500 8f68058941c6a2868133c9fcf18b42b2b562a422_2_375x500 e252a6a50d7339c2b3930febcd215b39618d873a_2_375x500

I think he means that the ER11 collet (by luck) fits in the Makita like a ”normal” collet would. Since I have allready ordered a 1/8” collet from Elaire, this is not for me but hopefully interesting for others to know!

These are ER11 collets! ER11

They require an ER Clamping Nuts in order to function correctly…

My understanding is that these clamping nuts do NOT fit the Makita and without the proper clamping nuts the collets will not work correctly.

Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think so or others would be using ER11 collets.

See the post I linked above. I’ve been using them for a while with the original collet nut. They don’t look like they should work, and they shouldn’t work, but they do.
