My Grizzly mini mill has the 3mt setup on it and when using regular collets i cannot get the head down far enough to reach the work on the table. I have to use either my vise or spare chunks of the aluminum to space it up far enough to reach, but i'd like to just clamp the work right to the table. Will using end mill holders give me the extra reach or would going to an r-8 setup be better?

littlemachineshop has a longer rack that you can swap out(last I checked) End mill holders will be a little bit longer, R8 could be better, easier to find tools and probably a little cheaper, otherwize your taper shoudl be ok.
