• Scam Alert. Members are reminded to NOT send money to buy anything. Don't buy things remote and have it shipped - go get it yourself, pay in person, and take your equipment with you. Scammers have burned people on this forum. Urgency, secrecy, excuses, selling for friend, newish members, FUD, are RED FLAGS. A video conference call is not adequate assurance. Face to face interactions are required. Please report suspicions to the forum admins. Stay Safe - anyone can get scammed.
  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

An 80% CXA Tool Holder

KeeponDragon

no problems... just challenges
I was overly excited on my 1st attempt to make a QCTH in BXA size...
So now I have what's probably darn close to a CXA holder, hanging out, reminding me that being excited isn't conducive to making things that are personally useful.
It could be usable as is, if I wanted to use a shim with it. I do not want to use shims.
It still requires the height adjustment post and tool clamping holes drilled and tapped. Hence why I am claiming it to be an 80% tool holder.
I think 20$ and you pay the shipping is fair.
It's made from 1045.17555548692724630158486648001041.jpg
