    Tool My name is…and I’m a tool junkie

    A few samples of some of the tooling I introduced into the Canadian market. The odd looking necked carbide endmills are a specialty item for Titanium. Clocking in at between $160 to $400 ea.

    Bearing Housing for Griffin

    These pictured are from an early Vixen, dual shocks, not he same as what you are making. The ones you are making and the ones I do from castings are the modified version of the standard ones. The standard ones are reproduced and very inexpensive, but have the same failings as the originals...

    What would you do with this Enco Automatic Facing and Boring Head?

    Welding a driveshaft yoke.

    My skills as a welder are not up to this task, it is definitely going out to be welded. It is pressed in pretty tight and needed a BFH to persuade the replaced centering yoke to clock true. My only concern is that alignment being influenced by heat or some undue knocking about. Welding and its...
