Whilst puttering around in the shop, patiently waiting(yea right) for my Z motor to be rebuilt and sent back, I came up with an idea to solve the rough and sometimes sticky problem of the bits not going in easily and coming out hard. I use a product from Bostik called Top Cote on my saws, planer and joiner. It leaves no residue, spays on and really gives a slick coating. I tried it on my router first, because it has a new system from Sears and was pretty sticky. Believe me it was like a miracle. I gave it a spritz and then worked the collar a couple of times up and down and. voila, smooth as silk. Bits go in and out almost effortlessly. I then tried it on the Compucarve with the same results. The can says it won't attract dust or moisture.

Worked for me!
