Since the original collets break easily due to the way they are printed I came up with a design that is both easier to print and stronger.
Currently there are only versions for a 3mm, 4mm and 5mm drill which I designed as a test in FreeCAD.
I will try to add a customizable OpenSCAD version for this.
Update 2019-04-17: added customizable OpenSCAD version - not tested yet though!
If you print from the OpenSCAD version please comment if there are any problems.
Note: the hex-collets probably should be printed using supports.
