    What to make when there is no work to do?

    Here is a little something that I made while I had nothing else going on in the shop. They are made of 4130 steel. I machined the holes and the OD while they were one piece, then machined the dovetail and slot as second ops.

    I had been wanting to make some of these for a while, just never got a round tuit.

    You can never have too many toolholders for any machine.

    Feel free to share what you guys have been making, I would venture to guess that there are a lot of people out there in the same situation as me, nothing much going on in the shop and looking for something to do.
