[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 398935, member: 13632"] Thanks for more good info!! I checked out RockJag's reamer holder and it looks good and the price is right, it's on the short list now! I kinda like the idea of just making one, it will help me learn the machine and gain some skills while making useful tools. Riddle me this, what surfaces are contacting in the above holder of the Bald Eagle? Is there a flat surface in the reamer side and the round point on the tail stock side that allows there to be movement or is it bearing on the shoulder like Fitch's? I know I can get the tail stock aligned horizontally fine but the vertical will be a challenge. To that end it may help if I can get another question answered. Can I set the tail stock in one position, lock it down and just run it in and out to ream and clean or do I need to slide the whole works back. I have 4 in to work with. Part of my problem is I don't have an indicator that is fine enough, I should have it this week though so I can measure with some precision. I was going to work on the tail stock today but had to work with my other "iron", I picked up a yearling buckskin horse today, he's the first link in my pack string for getting to better elk country. I'm jacked, I haven't worked with a horse before it was big enough to auger me into the dirt, I think I will have good results with this one though :D [/QUOTE]
