Tangential Diamond Tool Holders

[steamtoys]

Tangential Diamond Tool Holders, my finished project. Holders are a design as you go project, I had no actual plans. A great wealth of info was obtained from the many web sites that contained info, only proper to thank them all for sharing. My holders work fine on a 7X12 Lathe and also my Emco Super 11 Lathe. Used 10% Cobalt Tooll Bits that were not difficult to sharpen on my belt sander.

VERY nice job! I like these types of holders.

Very nicely done! :bow: I have more fun building tooling than I do actually making parts. And seat-of-the-pants engineering is the best part!! I am going to kinda'-sorta' copy your grinding fixture as I have not built one for my tangential cutter yet.

Here are my two, home made at the back and shop bought in the front together with my grinding jig inspired by Chucks.
