Plastic Bit Stops

[Oldtrainerguy]

Hey guys:

What is the best thing to replace the plastic stops on the decorative bits with?

Mine have disappeared on a couple of my bits. They are not in the machine that I can see.
I think they have gotten hot and fell off and vaccumed.

Now that you know the size of the plastic bit stops, just go to your hardware store and buy some tubing and make your own.
