Easy Change tool holders

[John HaineParticipant @johnhaine32865]

I’ve acquired (ebay) a Denford Novamill which has a BT30 taper and came with an Easy Change adapter and two ER16 collet chucks to suit. I’d like to have some additional tool holders but Easy Change holders are very expensive, compared with the usual systems.

 

On the other hand, the Easy Change fitting looks like a straightforward turning job, especially using CNC, so I’m willing to have a go at making some. Can anyone share the dimensions of the Easy Change holder, the tapered end, please?

Hi There

I think Dave Fenner did an article on making some in a past issue of MEW.

Thanks David, I’ll try to hunt it down.

Thanks again David, I found it – issue 171 p36. No specific dimensions but does give the taper – “22mm in 1 inch”.

 

Worth a go I think.

 

John.

Actually 22mm in 5 inches for setting a sine bar…sorry.
