Always great to see your smile and knowing you love being our in your shop having fun. My efforts of 9 days of videoing my build got eaten by Andriod Phone, but life goes on as John Wayne would say. Did have fun building my project, but Covid just bet me up for 2+ wks,,, Quess I am not at tough as a 5th Grader anymore. You Keep on Keeping on, and I will try too do the same! Bear
I cheated, made one similar but silver soldered the carbide rather than making it removable. I know, I took the lazy man approach. Very nice build Steve, and a whole lot easier for you to rotate your cutter then for me to rotate mine LOL thanks for sharing. Gary
This is a great tool creation, it’s a shame that I missed the drawing opportunity. This is a tool that I could really use. I ordered a tool holder from Amazon and it broke the first time I used it. I have some O1 and W1 tool steel perhaps I will make one of these tool holders myself. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I look forward to seeing what you do next.
I like to include the USA sticker on all of the products that I make. I also try my best to purchase USA made materials, but that is not always possible. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Thank you for sponsoring the event. I hope that you are doing well. Just wish that I were in a position to help out. I have not gotten a chance to talk to you about it but the whole thing sounds a bit bazar.
I have seen the Tornado, is that what you are referring to? Make sure to check your email. I have a solution to the question that you sent. Also a short video showing it work. I will send it to you if you want.
Great idea! I have seen them used on a wood lathe tool. Completely forgot about it going to have to make one for my son. Thank you for watching and commenting.

@@homemadetools My intention was to pay for the year. I certainly would be interested in a membership. Send an email to me; sharkrivermachine#gmail.com
That is very generous of you. I have a cutter holder for my last lathe for round. Not rigid as I cut it down to center it on my mini lathe. I’ve recently upgraded so needed this video regardless! Glad you put it out so even if I do not win I can replicate the holder!
Nice job Steve, haven't tried any of the round inserts yet myself, but you show that a holder for them can be made fairly easily with professional results
I am inclined to agree with you. The hardened surface may not hold the set screws well causing it to slip in the hold. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Steve, that's a nice looking tool! I also hope that Monday morning isn't too late to participate in your drawing (operator error caused my laptop to be offline for about two weeks and I'm struggling to catch up). If I don't get _really_ lucky and win the drawing, I think I'll see if my mill-drill can cut the harder steel to make a nice tool-holder similar to yours!
That is a good question. I don't think that I would like it, but I have seen some where there was a RH on one end and LH on the other. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Looks good Steven I have the same lathe and mill that you do so I should be able to make that holder. I've made others and the hardest part is finding the small screws to hold them in. I usually order them on Ebay. Please enter me into your drawing.
Hi Steven .. This was a very nice build, with the insert fitted. And yep you should be proud if it. Its a Shark Tool lol 😆 😂 🤣 . It has a lot of clearance around the tip, so it should give a nice cut. If you would like to add me into your draw, that would be great 👍. Thanks catch you on the next one
Looks good Steve. I got an amazon cheapy version for round inserts last winter and love it for hard to cut mystery steel out of the scrap pile. One thing on my list is to make a couple more tool insert holders with some different geometry. Andrew
Even when it does not make sense. I probably spent more on materials than I could have purchased the holder for from Shars. Thank you for watching and commenting.
The gold colored inserts came from an Ebay supplier several years ago so not exactly sure. The new gray colored inserts came from Shars. Thank you for watching and commenting.
I have looked at a lathe tool like this for my machine just haven't gotten off the wallet to purchase one. Wasn't sure if my little machine do well with it. Thank you for the video. If you would not mind would you inter me for the drawing. Thank you
NOT ONLY IS MY LATHE DOWN, I HAVE MILL-ENVY, IN A BAD WAY. I ORDERED MY TWO TEAR TAP TODAY. YA.....I JUST DOUBLE CHECKED MY ORDER. IT'S RH... SO I HAD TO CANCEL.
