just a sweet tool holder i built for my desk top lathe...

i got a top slide to make angles but needed a new tool holder for it.

one side is stationary the other i used a woodruff key and milled a 3/4 hole then added the angles so it can be set at any angle gives me about 23degree angle each way...

any way thought i would post it

there is a bolt and t nut that hold it on place...

Nice!

My lathe came with the same idea but i dont think it gets that much angle.
I'm 99% sure you have the same I one I do. ( seen it in one of your videos)
But it don't have a angle top slide. So I got a random one but done know if this will work just yet. I don't have any specs on the top slide...

When I get it in I'll let you know if you want to get one also.

The cross slide for ours is not in stock anywhere!!!! (M1035)
