2610 forum posts 312 photos | I used the short type in a cross drilled hole in the 5/8" toolholder of a Dore boring and facing head, tool bit secured with a grub screw in the end of the bar, or if the tool is angled to reach the bottom of a blind bore the securing screw was at 90 degrees to the toolbit.

3630 forum posts 128 photos | +1 for Emgee Ages ago i was given a small baccy tin full of similar cutters in both HSS and carbide. Donor said "You will find these handy as you have a small boring head." Presumably meaning they could be used as Emgee says in a shank with suitable cross drilled hole. If I ever find the need I shall make a shank. Clive |

4655 forum posts 304 photos | They do look like the old style boring bar bits. And there is a toolholder for turning laying about in the workshop which holds something similar. Edited By old mart on 02/06/2023 19:05:33 |
