        Having discovered I have a few 11/16" parting tool blades, I was wondering of someone sould point me in the direction of a suitable holder – UK based. I'd rather not spend my tiome making one….

          Depends if you want to pay out for the rest of a BXA quick change tool post as that's the standard blade height.

          What type of toolpost are you using?

            Several variants of such blades were made, Matt

            If it’s the Eclipse style holder that you need … be sure that all your blades are the same profile, and that the holder is designed to clamp that shape.

            The devil is in the detail

            Edit: Looks like Jason has identified your specific blade

              JasonB, I'm using Tripan and Mulitfix but I was anticipating a 10/12mm holder that would then be held in a standard toolholder – if that makes sense!

              MichaelG – The type I have are the chipbreaker ones – reduced width in most of the depth and a top 'v' groove.

              Thanks
