Hi, a modification question

I have broken a 2.5mm insert screw I had to drill it out in a DCMT 11T304 tip, as hole in the tip will take a 3mm standard screw has anyone modified tip holders to 3mm screw.

as 3mm is easy to get and use a standard Allan key

I can get one from RS components £1.25 each "outrages" cost for 1 off , or from china on eBay 10 off for £5.09 for + shipping.

thanks Kevin

Kevin,

Pricey little blighters aren't they!

But …

if ever there was a place you need top quality, and good fit, a toolholder must be it.
