Parametric Tailstock Die Holder

Parametric Tailstock Die Holder.



Required printed parts:
- TailStockDieHolder_knurl_nuts.stl (1x) or TailStockDieHolder_hex_nuts.stl (1x) or TailStockDieHolder_square_nuts.stl (1x)
- MTA_shank_2_12_30.stl or MTA_shank_2_12_40.stl (1x)


Required other parts:
- tommy bar, diameter 9 mm, length 140 mm (1x)
- m4 knurl nut, length 5 mm (2x), or m4 hex nut (2x), or m4 square nut 8x8x2mm (2x)
- m4 hex screw (2x)

- the dies I am using: diameter 24.9 mm, thickness 8.5 mm
