Does anyone know of a source for rotary chisels with a 1/8 shaft? While the website for Creative Technologies is still active, I cannot get a response to an order and Razertip only sells these (they call them Tri-Cutters) with a 1/4" shaft.

Have you tried contacting them by phone?

I don't have any information about alternate sources, but a 1/8" shank seems small for an aggressive cutter. I prefer just using burs and making clouds of dust.

Works for me. I got one in my cart, and can get to a page where they ask me to register to create an account, but won't buy it coz I don't want one.
Do you have any of the ad blockers No Script or Ghostery running?
Disable them when you navigate to that page.

I agree with Bill,

Try the phone number.

Keep in mind it is a one person shop.
I know the last time we ordered from him we got an email saying he was going on vacation and was uncertain he could fill our order.
We'd either get it in a week or 5 weeks. Turns out it was less than a week

Don has stopped accepting credit cards. I agree try the phone,
My last order I called and sent him a check for chisels and xhipping.
He has been having some troubles of late.

I placed an order there a month ago and have heard nothing. A friend did the same.

We both heard response is varied. It is a one man shop and life has many distractions.

Some pleasant, others not so much.

Woodworker's Supply carries the rotary chisels - http://woodworker.com/332-gouge-rotary-chisel-mssu-952-052.asp
i think it may have been mentioned by Al Stirt as an alternate source during a demo I attended a couple of years ago. I ordered from them a few months back - took forever to receive the order (seems like it was about 4 weeks), but I've got them now. Packaging indicates you can order at rotarychisel.com - this links to Creative Technologies.
