  • In this video I make my version of an Olly Tool Setter for setting the height of lathe tools. The original Olly Tool Setter was designed by Neil from‪@NellsMechanicalManCave‬ and it is called an Olly Tool Setter because he named it after Olly from ‪@ollysworkshop‬ because Olly gave him the material.
    In my opinion this style is much easier to use than the traditional style that just has a fixed arm sticking out that you have to try to align your tool with.

    Hi Mick !!!
    Great job you made of that tool setter.
    Thanks for the shout out, and a bigger thanks for making the tool.
    If one person benifits from an idea, it makes the effort worth while.
    Cheers Neil

    Hi Mick, thanks for the shout out. I like your build, especially the little bit of laser engraving, unfortunately that's making me want to spend more money! I really need to make myself a tool height setter, I'll have to add it to the ever growing list of things to do!

    I am very impressed by the finish that cutter gives in your mill. The deburring tool is cool. This looked like a great project and I enjoyed following along, thanks

    Looks like a fun tool to build.

    ALUMIWELD is NOT for steel!!! It says so in the name! It WILL come apart!

      According to the Alumiweld web site: "ALUMIWELD is a welding rod that is able to repair any aluminum metal by using a PROPANE TORCH !
      Also will repair Zinc based metals, (Pot Metal), Mag-Alloy and Galvanized Steel all with a propane torch.
      AlumiWeld is capable of repairing copper and brass to aluminum."
      Given that it is specified that it will work with materials other than aluminum, I thought I would try it to attach stainless steel to carbon steel. Worst case scenario, I need to make it again and use more traditional brazing techniques.
      I really doubt that it's going to come apart, I've literally banged it on the welding table and it's still stuck tight.

    Ever heard of a dial indicator? What a complete waste of time

      Why would I want to set up a dial indicator everytime and zero it out to a known height instead of grabbing a dedicated tool that is permanently set to the correct height. Obviously you don't get it.

      @@MicksWorkshop dedicate a dial indicator, permanently mounted for the task. They cost less money than the steel you wasted building a crappy version of...a dial indicator
