I have a Unimat cutoff tool holder, I also picked up one from Micro Mark that fits.? I found blades at Harbor Freight that can be used in the standard Unimat tool post with a shim under.? ?The HF

First of all, I only power tap through holes, never bottom tap. I reverse the spindle and back the tap out under power slowly. I hope this explains the process. It works very well. Dick --

Thanks for the photo, Peter, I will try this on my Unimat then. The G-clamp is cut, I will try and see if one of my machinist’s clamps fits. Thins up, Herman Verzonden vanuit Outlook voor iOS

Oh, and projecting vertically (like other cut-off tooling).

Hi Herman, it's just the standard U3 toolpost, with a tiny (and very cute) 'G' clamp. This photo is roughing out 'steps' in an aluminium pulley before further turning (I know, I know, as others have

That sounds interesting. But just to get the idea - what tool post you use where you can clamp the piece of hacksaw blade in between 2 tool blanks? Assuming that these tool blanks measure, say, 6x6mm

I got a similar one from a UK supplier but I find the clamping a bit dodgy, the cutter tends to skew away from the body of the tool. I’ve used pieces of old hacksaw blade (cut to appropriate size

I just finished making 2 urethane belts for my Unimat 24 volt DC motors. It was easier than I had expected. I had a spool of urethane round belting material so I gave it a try! Dick --

Hey Herman, An old shop trick is parting off with a hacksaw. some skill involved of course as their is some risk. pax, Jeff

Has anyone had a chuck come unthreaded? I had thought these would be non-reversible with the threads on the headstock and tailstock being right hand so normal rotation tightens them, reverse would

That is what I am using. Dick -- http://www.homemadetools.net/ forum/ OFF- SET-tailstock-center-65965#post105972 http://www.homemadetools.net/ forum/s...995#post112113 (

Hi Carl, So, with the 3ph, do you just slam the drum switch through off to reverse? That just seems like a harsh thing to do. Not being critical here, just curious. Tim

I have a similar one, also from ebay, and I am happy with it. Best Regards John

I bought this one on ebay and it works just fine. It look very similar to your picture.

Here is a link to A. R. Warner Co. and their selection of grooving and cutoff tooling. These use HSS inserts and have sizes to fit the Unimats (1/4, 3/8 and 5/16 inch shanks). They also have larger

Hi Herman, If I understand your question, the cut off tool can be mounted in the standard tool holder, and I also use my quick change tool holder. I attached photos. Scott Sent: Friday, November 8,

I use the Sherline cutoff blade on a Sherline lathe with their own steel toolpost and holders.? A cutoff blade should work on any later.? The narrower blade puts lower stress on the lathe.

That is great, Scott! Just one question - how is the tool holder mounted on the cross slide? Is there any additional holder because the cutoff tool holder itself does not seem to have anything of the

Thanks for that, John. This might work, but before deciding to buy one I need to check dimensions so as to make sure that it reaches center height on my Unimat 3 without too much of a hassle. Would

Hi Gang: I do power tapping most of the time. Most Bridgeports have 3 phase motors that reverse instantly. The radial arm drilling machines I've used also have a clutch reverse, slow in, fast out.
