You EMCO Compact 8 /8E men will probably all now be aware that replacement Cross Slide Leadscrew Mount BA4 020020, which falls apart in its original die cast Mazak form, is now replaced by a "machined from solid" version .In stock at PRO MACHINE TOOLS. Ive just ordered one at £58.20 inc VAT /Postage

Does anyone make an adapter flange for the 8 (with its special DIN Nose /hole centres)to enable fitment of cheaper oriental chucks etc

Cheers

Brian

Thread: Spotfacing Tools

Thank you gentlemen for your so prompt suggestions.Arc's set doesn't go to 20mm cutter with a 10/10.5 dia pilot which is my first size objective.It looks as if I will have to make some,but will try MSC .Thanks again.

I require a series of spotfacing cutters to suit hexagon nuts/washers on M6/M8/M10 sizes. I have searched online and the regular tooling retailers and all I get is the Counterboring Tools for Socket-Head Cap Screws i.e too small counterbore in relation to washer seating size of a regular bolt or nut.Can anyone suggest who sells such mundane tools, before I have to make a set ?

I am machining aluminium castings.

Thank you
