Thread: Quick change tool holders |
24/01/2019 12:40:38 |
Hi, yes 10mm under tool, yes heights all OK, but cannot use 16mm tools cannot lower to center) despite holder having more than wide enough capability. 14mm if there were such as size, would be max, so have shifted to 12x12 from 10x10 I was using on Sieg SC4 / Mumford ml7 before it. I have a 16 X 16, that I will mill 4 off. I want to buy more holders, for the obvious reason, and didn't want to buy incorrect ones, as I suspect I would have, if I had bought T51's? Again thank you to all who have taken time to reply and shown me light at the end of a confusing tunnel. |

My post is indeed 51 mm high, my holders are 73.4 wide & 37.3 - 37.8 high. Would that make them maybe home made or imperial or lord knows what? The info so far provided has really helped guys, I was beginning to think I had a one off or something. |

Hi guys, this may have been answered, but my tool post (on my Boxford 10-20sts) is stamped Boxford S0/B PD My tool holders have an opening of 19mm, 3 are metric, my parting holder is definitely imperial, (all the bolts are and it is taller than the metric holders) I'm not sure what size holders to buy. I contacted RDG, sadly the sales guy sounded uninterested/ bored and told me he'd send me an email of their T51 holder. Email almost instantly arrived, with a "high quality CAD" attachment, which turned out to be a top elevation hand drawn (what we used to refer to as "fag packet drawing") of a tool holder, no height supplied that almost, but did not match mine. The CAD reference at least gave me my laugh for the day. I read with eager interest in this thread that T00 is the same as S00, and wondered where to get them, and what if anything /B PD referred to? Apologies if this has been answered in another thread, best regards to all, Mark. |
