Hello, I'm in the process of buying a Haas ST10. I'm trying to purchase tools for this machine but I'm not sure what the square stick tool dimensions of this machine are? Any info would be great. Thanks.

According to the Haas website, it's 3/4"

I need to get a bigger cutoff tool but the Iscar/Hertel/walter ones I look at need the 25MM holder - all us St10 people have 19mm or .750
can I just cut the bottom to .750 and will tool be on center?
I need to cutoff 4.00 diameter and my current walter can only go 3.1 with 19mm shank
ST10 with VDI toolholder and the type of tool holders VDI40 use tools with holders of 25 * 25. Although it is possible in the United States it is not.

Identify the characteristics of the machine in Russian, but google will always help you. ;)
I read that the VDI toolholder system is not as ridged as the BOT type tools. Is that correct?
ST-10 arrived and all the .75 tooling I purchased work great.
I simply put the tool in, set some arbitrary depth, snugged it up and viola, it's cutting on center already!
My first project is cutting some Delrin.
In the past I would grind my own tools from HSS.. Nice and sharp, perfect for plastic.
I can't imagine buying 3/4" HSS blanks to grind for my cutters.
How would you do it? Use something like 3/8 or 1/2 and shim it to fit the 3/4 holder?
Maybe there is some type of holder already on the market?
Thanks
