Wimberley lathe tool holder

[VicParticipant @vic]

I no longer get MEW. Have you got a picture?

I think it has been covered in a few of the 'tangential toolholder' threads on this forum.

Has anyone thought of making a toolholder for threading by mounting some HSS at an angle like this?

The point would be pretty weak. I don't seem to have difficulty off hand grinding screwcutting tools, perhaps I'm superhuman!! If I knew how to insert those silly little yellow faces I'd put one in to show I'm joking.

For general purpose work, Vic; I think you could probably round-up that top angle to 60°
