It is only in the last few years I knew anything about these quick change tool holders ever existed. I was out of the trade and retired first knowing any thing about them. Needing one on a 12 ft chuck boring mill is pretty slim eh, LOL. I have always thought and admired your setups. They are simple and strong. No bells and whistles. Without a solid setup there is no way to be confident of us hitting the numbers. You know the ones on the print. The joy of being dead on can't be any more of a feel good thing that they make. Oh yea, That is at 72 F lol. LOL, It's always nice to have the teacher/owner make the bo bo. Proves your humanity eh, chuckle, Like have always said the difference between a pro and a newbie is the pros can usually fix their mistakes, LOL. This is one of your many ways to make our machines beter than the day it came home to help you out old friend. All the best to you and yours my friend. Thanks !
Great idea Joe - much appreciated. You remind me of a couple tool makers this old engineer used to work with. We could always laugh at each others goof ups. We all do it. Keep the ideas coming.
some 24 years ago I discovered that the then common mouse ball is in fact soft steel under that rubber covering and can be easily machined into a knob. The rubber covering can be removed with a wire wheel in the drill press. Yes, I have a jar of mouse balls which I collected as old mice at work got replaced with opticals.
I literally ran into this issue last night at work. I was making some aluminum spacer bushings for a flapper prox. I have already made the centerline reference bar. When I switched to the parting tool I ran out of travel on the height adjustment.
@Joe Pie I have the same tool holder but can't find the proper inserts. Can you reply with the inserts you use for that NSL-123B holder at the beginning
I enjoy these video, the only problem is in my workshop I do not have a mill. Unaffordable for me. I do hobby lathe work. I would like to make this, but no way without a mill.
At no time will my hands leave my arms. Old boy here we go again , feels like April fool's again on perpetual motion , and magnetizing aluminium 😜 lol.
Joe, Keith I really feel a bit (like a back seat driver) What in heck are imperial kits?? Either send me a more detailed explanation, or better yet, a picture of this kit. Please send me a reply, thanks.
Happy days Joe, great job as always, love these tips, tricks and projects, thanks for sharing buddy, best wishes to you and yours from merry ol England
Center to center. Why didn’t you use caliper math. Measure the screw then zero the calipers then measure the outside of the screws for the center to center distance

Don't know how you do it, I learn something from every video that solves an issue I have run into. Great stuff.
Hi Joe,
They were all fantastic tips and yes I have had a 316 chip go down my shirt. Not pleasant. You and the family stay safe.
I miss the sound of the formula 1 race car engines turning 15,000 to 20,000 RPM running past the shop when you fast forward.
Trident Metal Distributors would like to thank you for this video.
Love your videos Joe! I think that the thread used for electrical and lamp components is a 1/8-27 nps (straight not tapered)
I love your tips
Cheers for the tips! Also yes chips don't have to be smoking to be hot enough to burn!
A meatball part got to be a smaller meatball. 😆
Thanks for showing it all.
I forgot to complement the finish of the meatball part. Ship it! Awesome!
Very clever. Nice work sir

Thanks for sharing your experience
Thanks Joe. Another excellent tip. Loved the great visual demonstration at the end!
Still using those calipers too. I’m always amazed they are still kicking haha.
Another Joe Pie master class.
2:34 zero the calipers on a single stud first, then get your outside dimension, maths is done for you then. no need to subtract a diameter.

confusing picture
I assume the contraption should/can be fitted in reverse to avoid screw hitting the wedge?
thank you again 👍
Thanks for the video very helpful tips. Thanks!
Thanks Joe, more shop gems that benefit everyone.

A master piece as usual Joe, and no I didn't see a f=ck up, your my hero, and don't make mistakes....
Hey Joe, I've missed your content lately. How goes the remodel project?
Good! Update video coming soon.
Try using kerosene as as a cutting agent machine aluminum 😊
Just my opinion.
Opinions may vary 😊
WD 40 is ok.
Good to know even the pros make a mistake occasionally.
un-loosen? do you mean tighten?
So, you are human Joe? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I never would have believed it.

That 1.320 is that feet or miles. Just trying to figure this out. Don't give up on me. 😁
Mistake? No mistake there, just using your head 🙃
Not cool, Joseph, not cool! 😂
I was confused when you milled off the shoulder, then I realized, Joe is human....lol, laughing with you not at you...
Happy days Joe, great job as always, love these tips, tricks and projects, thanks for sharing buddy, best wishes to you and yours from merry ol England
It is 0230hrs, you owe me some sleep.
Mistakes happen. Eyes and fingers are intact. No worries.
"Unloosen"
That's his thing, saying that. Just to poke people.
OOPS!
Center to center. Why didn’t you use caliper math. Measure the screw then zero the calipers then measure the outside of the screws for the center to center distance
