so I spent half the day searching for a tool I made a year ago. I needed it to fix another tool today.
https://www.hobby-machinist.com/thr...ou-make-in-your-shop-today.67833/post-1055846 wish I could find it. I have a bunch of rounded turning tools, but the material was difficult so I wanted the tool. Looked everywhere but where it was, or maybe I just didn't see it.
.
I was making the changes that @tonyfoale made to his HF vibrator.. I used too thick a piece and now need to remove a lot of material. I may need to make some new spacers and get some 4mm 30-35mm long screws, as even after I relieve the boss on the plastic platten, and shorten the shaft, there is no room ... I wonder if they changed the plastic mold or changed who built the vibrator .
edit: Also spun a MT2 taper drill bit in the lathe center today. , not once but 2 or 3 times. When I went to pop it out, it was not coming out smoothly. Well, it galled, Now I have to buy an MT2 taper reamer to clean it up.
