Hey if anyone runs across a ENCO 35 B tool holder they don't need please hit me with a PM. I would like to have a couple pre set for threading, parting, turning etc. Would not mind an extra boring bar holder. Thanks guys

I know the tool holders themselves look similar. I'm sure if you call ENCO and get their master catalog they'll probably sell them to you one at a time if that's what you want.
Ral-Mik, Aloris, Enco and several imports all look pretty much the same. Something to remember if you do a lot of boring with round boring bars. You can also get them with a "V" notch cut in the bottom of the groove where the tool actually goes.
Good luck.

They are cheaper than ENCO.

They are very easy to make, I've made 20 or 25 of them over the years. If they are to be light duty I make them from aluminum, otherwise I make them from barstock.
If you rip the dovetail longways in a 12" piece of stock, you can bandsaw off the holders on an as-needed basis having already done the hard part.

I've always used the Enco version of the Aloris quick-change tool posts. Accurate enough for my needs and a more affordable price for the average hobbyist. Should find it on www.usenco.com.
