(AD FREE) Making an ARMY of Tool Holders
Added 2022-09-29 14:00:07 +0000 UTCThis one's been a long time coming. I'm finally taking care of my lack of quick chance tool post holders and more than doubling my collection. I think it will be a while before I have to re-mount a tool!

Absolutely. Those two would go hand in hand

2022-10-02 00:51:55 +0000 UTCSuper excited to see your next project, I know you have a machinists level but like you said, it can be a bit big at times. It would be a great project for you to learn on and for us to watch!

2022-10-01 05:53:40 +0000 UTCThat's a great project idea! But it turns out I already have both a straight shank holder and a morse taper holder for the tool post. Maybe a proper grinding attachment is in order though

2022-09-30 19:42:04 +0000 UTCSince it looks like you have some extra steel from this project you should make a carriage drilling holder. Just make another holder but put a 3/4" or 1" hole and then use a straight shank adapter for a drill chuck. That way you can use the carriage and more importantly the DRO to drill holes to a precise depth.

2022-09-30 17:37:41 +0000 UTCNope your right the anodize process will dissolve steel. A handy if not expensive idea to keep in mind if you break a tap in something aluminum and expensive.

2022-09-30 17:33:53 +0000 UTCThank you! I'm not 100% sure but I believe anodizing is limited to aluminum. I could be wrong though
Brandon Sander
2022-09-30 12:40:14 +0000 UTCVery Nice, Have you ever looked at a clear anodizing? just wondering

Brandon Sander
2022-09-29 23:33:15 +0000 UTCReally nice end result considering this is from a big piece of truck-ejected steel :P I agree on the bare finish, looks great.

2022-09-29 19:11:33 +0000 UTCLoved the video. I cool video idea would be integrating lathe tooling basics into a project. Lathe is my weakest area, and I'm not sure how to differentiate the different cutters. Keep up the good work!
