Ring Cutter Mount

[DoubleDCues]

Wanted to share a method of tool holding for a Fordom type cutting tool. The normal boring bar holder is .750. BUT, I happened to have some 1" Tasco Steel rings that for some reason I have hung onto for 30 years. Now I know why. About 10 minutes of shaping on the grinder, an I used a 1.000 x24" set up rod for alignment, and it's super solid! Time to design the indicator mounts and I am off to the ring cutting races!

I had listed 30mm, actually they were 1.000 it's a perfect fit too.
