FoR 16mm Parting Tool Combo

FoR (Front or Rear) Inverted Parting Toolholder includes a fine, high-strength Crobalt parting tool. Operates with blade held upside down. Use in front or rear tool post. Model specifically set for tool posts on 16mm Diamond Toolholder.

Inverted blade design significantly reduces chance of jam-up and blade breakage
Minimal side overhang and no front overhang help maximize rigidity
Cutting takes place on underside. Swarf tends to fall out of groove rather than pile up on top of cutting edge
Lack of swarf on top of blade means coolant is free to get right in to cutting edge
Horizontal mounting of blade further reduces chance of blade pulling itself into cut and is especially advantageous when turning brass and bronze.
Simple to resharpen--only front face has to be ground.

Features/Tips

>If backordered, shipping may take 2 to 3 weeks.

Build the Snow -- A Tandem, Double-Acting Engine

By Doug Kelley

Doug Kelley's very popular Snow natural gas pumping engine, as an internal combustion engine construction series, first appeared in The Home Shop Machinist magazine. An ample supply of back issues in which the project appeared soon sold out -- encouraging reprint in a booklet format. The resulting 44-page plus cover saddle stitch volume includes 13 pages of photos that showcase full-size Snow engines housed in museum settings around the U.S. -- some that run and some that are being restored with the intent to run.
