Here's a quote from wtopace that was posted in the other recent Haimer thread...
This made me realize/remember that you probably won't be able to use the Z-finding feature of the Taster if you are just putting it into an R8 collet. I'd imagine the X and Y would run just about as concentric as your collet and spindle though (with a slight bit of error possibly introduced by the varying Z height of the probe).
The Tormach low-profile holder and a 3/4" collet might be a good idea. (Sorry to hear you already have the 10mm collet coming.)
