Re: toolpost


Hello Bert

The David Lammas three sided toolpost solves the safety problems that
four sided toolposts have and allows a selection of tools to be easily
available. It is easy to make from the castings and drawings that
Blackgates supply.

I made mine so that the 3/8" tools I mostly use automatically line up
on the centre line. I think there is enough meat in the castings to add
in a method to provide height adjustment for other tool sizes, which is
what I intend to do with the casting which is awaiting machining. Yet
another project!

John
