Re: end mill holder
Hi Gang: I just did the math, and the Diameter minus Pitch equals Tap Drill size works out to a 58% thread. Since it is a ratio relation ship the percentage doesn't change with diameter or pitch

It has the watchmaker's spindle, but I don't see a standard one.

Re: end mill holder
No offense taken, guys. I am just sharing information from standardized reference tables. The reality is that you could have a looser tap drill hole. You may just need to engage an additional thread

Re: How many Unimats is too many?
Wow, I feel inadequate now, I only have 4 lathes! (Unimat, Logan, Clausing & a wood lathe). Do parts for a Schaublin count? -Dave

Re: How many Unimats is too many?
Glad to see I'm not the only one with the small lathe affliction. No Unimat (yet), but I think I'm at 9 lathes now ranging from a Sherline up to an 11" Logan.

Re: end mill holder
Hi Peter: I bought some steel that was too hard to saw. I built a big fire in the back yard and annealed it for hours. When it cooled I could cut it, but it was still tougher than mild steel. You

Re: end mill holder
I tried to bore out and thread one of these to M14 x 1 - on a Unimat 3 ! ?They are made of tough stuff. Wrecked an M14 tap, although I had bored it generously. (BTW surely by definition the minimum

Re: end mill holder
Hello: I was told tap drills in metric are simple: screw size minus pitch, so M14 - 1mm = 13mm tap drill. 12.75 might be 100% thread, but not much stronger than 75%. Carl.

Re: end mill holder
Ah, I understand! Hey, at least you didn't have to single-point that thread! I think my best by date was about 38 years ago. But I have seen folks who should know say things that scare me. I'm 68 now.

Re: end mill holder
Yes I tapped the brass for the set screw, but I also cobbled the set screw together, not trivial on silver steel, which was the material closest to hand at the time. So I used a die for that - I

Re: end mill holder
I got one with a 8mm hole, ER-11, IIRC, with the intent to thread it M12x1 for my SL/DB machines. It's here somewhere! ;) IIRC, M14x1 needs a 13mm tap drill? I have a pair of very nice tungsten

Re: end mill holder
Had to use a tap to thread the set screw hole. Possibly to thread the spindle end, too, though that can be single-point threaded if you have small enough tooling. IIRC dies are used to put external
