Tool Holder Hotel

[BGHansen]

Dear God...

I love it and I am very jealous

Well, each QCTP tool holder and insert tool holder probably average less than $30 each. I bought a lot of stuff from eBay seller "zimi-hk". ER16 tool holders with 10 bits are around $10, so a couple hundred bucks can fill a rack pretty quickly.

I have about 85 blocks loaded, multiple TNMG, VNMG, CCMT, CNMG, WNMG, TPG and various other oddball turning tools, 5 or 6 threading tools, 5 different types of parting tools, boring bar holders and a few others.

As far as a rack to hold them, I did it the cheap and easy way. Ripped wooden dovetails and then when cutting them to length they were cut at a slight angle so tools would not slide off onto my head.




They are mounted on a vertical plywood suspended from the wall and ceiling above head height. You can see that on the right rear of this pic above lathe. They are behind the T_handles


In a small shop you have to keep coming up with novel storage ideas!

really I’m just bad at finding the right tooling, a lot of trial and error, with lots of questionable decisions. Some I use everyday, others I use once or twice a year, even others I bought and found they work on one material great, but are about worthless on everything else.
