Ash,
You can easly make more drawbars. I've got three different ones for different holders etc. and it is not really a bother at all. You can get cheap ER collets from E-bay. I've bought a couple of sets (metric and imperial) which came from Hong Kong. They are fine. I even bought a set of ER50 collets for use in the lathe.
If the right holder comes up, but is a different thread, then provided you can get that thread through your spindle, go for it...
Regards,
Doug
