Drill Press Bit Capacity
 
Didn't know where else to put this but didn't know where else to go. I bought a new drill press and it will only take bits down to 5 mm. Is there any sort of collet I could use to put smaller bits into the chuck?

Thanks:confused:

You can get a smaller Jacobs chuck with a threaded back, insert a bolt, minus head for a manderal and chuck it up. Or you can buy the hex shank bits from sears.com but they a kinda pricey...Bob
