For computer users, the New CDROM version of Machinery's Handbook is an absolute must. Here is ultimate convenience when you need a quick answer. This electronic version greatly simplifies the access procedures and uses Adobe Acrobat Reader for reading the materials (PDF files). Using the search mechanism or simply going to the index or table of contents and clicking on the desired subject, you are immediately linked to it. Other convenience features are included.
Recently, the publisher (Industrial Press) realized that the small print of the Original Version of Machinery's Handbook was difficult or at least inconvenient to read, so they introduced the larger print edition, published in 7 x 10" size, but containing all the same information incorporated in the 5 x 7" version.
Since its introduction in 1914, Machinery's Handbook has remained the most authoritative, single-volume, reference work available for metalworking and manufacturing. Now in its 29th edition, it has been thoroughly updated and is 100 pages larger, now containing 2800 pages. Every machinist should own one of these valuable references from Industrial Press.

Diamond Toolholder's unique design provides a number of benefits over standard tooling, both in use and when sharpening. When cutting, 80 degree included angle of tool allows machinist to both turn and face in same setup, saving time and tooling. When it comes time to sharpen toolbit, simply clamp it in sharpening jig (supplied with Right Hand Toolholder kit) and grind. That's all there is to sharpening toolbit -- no complicated geometry, only one face needs grinding. Get perfect results every time!
8mm Toolholder is perfect size for smaller, 6-9 inch lathes, such as South Bend 9 or Myford 8. Toolholder uses 1/4" square toolbits and features a 7/16"x1/2" shank size. "R" denotes a right hand toolholder, which will cut towards lathe headstock and will do facing cuts on stock to left side of tool. Left hand toolholders are also available.
Tool holder size will depend on a combination of size of your lathe and type of tool post fitted. Model number indicates distance in millimeters from bottom of tool post tool slot to lathe centerline. Check tool height and size of tool slot in tool post before purchasing.
R8mm Toolholder Kit includes: - 1 Right Hand Toolholder - 1 HSS Tool Blank - 1 Grinding Jig - 1 Hex Key - 1 Instructional DVD - Helpful articles written by Rudy Kouhoupt & Desmond Burke
