Work holding arbors

[Charles scozzari]

Hi, just like to put these out there. I don't like oversized washers on my work, but the commercially available expanding arbors on the left leave a lot to be desired. They just don't work. The work slides down the shaft or off the tool. So what I came up with is an arbor with different sized stepping to hold the washers or other round pieces securely with on slipping while cutting. There cut from a piece of 1 1/8" stock and can be cut to accommodate different IDs as needed. I usually stack the washers for cutting to have them all the same ODs. Thanks for looking.

They work really well. The other more expensive expanding arbors are really a lot of money. Spuds I like it. Thanks for the info.
