Easily better than the cheapo ones on Amazon and Aliexpress. Just add your own needles. Has storage in the handle.
Requires 1x M3x30mm screw and 1x M3 nut.
Also you need to get your own needles, something like this.
Print with supports at 0.2mm layer height in the orientation as published, with supports. LoboCNC recommends printing the collet at 0.15mm so it's not 1:1 aligned with the holder and doesn't stick, probably good advice.
I'd also recommend printing the handle layers from 72mm to 99mm at 100% infill for added strength since those sides are thin - you can do this in Prusa Slicer by right-clicking the model, choose Height Range Modifier, set the heights and then right-click the modifier and add 100% Infill.
I used PLA for everything but the collet, where I used PETG since it needs to bend and be strong.
I included the collet that worked for my needles, others can be found at LoboCNC's original model: https://www.printables.com/model/314149-collet-chuck-and-collet-assortment
