Thanks William even better it is HQ in Melbourne Victoria, also in the UK phone 01524751731 for the UK Distributer. Garry is back at work on the end of this month in Melbourne.

So many thanks for the heads up mate I will have a yarn with Garry by phone on his return.

On my Hercus I made a device to hold a Dremel Tool where the tool holder fits that works a treat,the same place a Turnado can be fitted giving 360 degree movement.

Cheers Peter.

I bought one of his “Diamond” tool holders from his UK distributor, which I think may be his Daughter? Very good tool. He also makes a very good grinding rest.

Hi William I bought a Diamond Tool Holder and the many accessories a long time ago when it was released in Oz. I found it to be awkward and difficult to use unless I cut the tool short,the tool holder is bulky as well, takes up a lot of space,how do you find it in use?.

From what I have read the main man here in Australia has a brother in the UK,I am waiting to talk to the owner in Melbourne when he reopens at the end of this month.

Peter.

I found the diamond tool pretty good Peter. The only problem, which I commented on, was that you had to angle the tool holder to both turn and face without moving the tool. Some time later they changed the tool design to fix this small niggle. I have made my own Tangential tools and use one or the other for 90% of my metal turning.

I would like to talk to some one that has bought one of these.
