Looks a nice piece of work! I like the finish on it.

The fact that it has some flexibility will help if anything goes a bit wrong.

My parting tool holder, given to me, many years ago when I bought a secondhand ML7 also has similar flexibility, and is still going strong.

The tool is inverted in a rear toolpost and the blade has no top rake. It works so well that I am now brave enough to part off using the power cross feed!

I have tried and failed to make a parting tool holder for my drummond, so this is really useful! Thank you
