Auction Finds: Morse Shank Drills and Big Honking Hold Down Kit

[chip_slinger]

For the first time, I participated in a remote auction. It was interesting, since I couldn't see the items before hand and the pictures and descriptions were limited. I won two lots, one of assorted Morse taper shank drills and the other was a hold down kit. When the items landed, I was real happy with the drills. But, I was surprised by the hold down kit - it's man size, big threads and T nuts! Meant for big CNC tables maybe? The threads are 5/8"-11. Anybody need a set this big? Do you think I could make new T nuts for my BP that would fit this size thread?

Nice score. If the studs will fit through the slots on your table just get a carbide endmill and mill down the T-nuts to fit your slots.

I think can use it. I'll check tomorrow. I'll let you know, and you can let me know what you want for them.

Great score on both, especially the drills, pricey ! Clamp set is for large Vertical and Horizontal Mills. 50 HP Cincinnati and Big Kearney and Trecker. or any other big iron. Larry Smith
