How i made my tangential tool / Diamond Tool Holder: |
| mattinker:
celsoari, Interesting and usefull! I have my own left and right cutting versions of the same, the right hand version has become my go to right hand lathe tool. mine are made in a very different way, video of the left hand tool being edited at the moment! Cheers, Matthew |

Great to see your version. These are great, specially because of ease of sharpening / grinding. Also my go to tool but my holders (Left and Right) were bought from Eccentric Engineering a few years back. I'm not sure they make the small holder any more - at least not identical to mine of 5 years or so back. John B |

I remember these coming out semi-commercially many years back, made by a chap in Australia if I remember correctly. Probably in the late 80's or early '90s. I always intended to make one, so well done - you did! I suspect I dropped the idea when I went over almost exclusively to index-able tooling. But the tangential ones are a very clever idea, especially as they are so easy to re-grind back to sharp after that oops moment! |
| SwarfnStuff:
Andrew and all, Yep and they are still being made here in OZ by the same chap although the originals were designed by another Australian as far as I know. Not cheap but really good stuff. Anyway, here's the web site for Eccentric Engineering for those interested. https://eccentricengineering.com.au/ Regards John B |
