- Hardware/Software: My Novamill, bought in Nov 11 without electronics, is now up and running under Mach3 with a home-build control box. I'm very pleased with the machine, only project so far is correcting a cheap small machine vice originally bought for a vertical slide to use on the machine - not a right-angle in it when bought!

Re: Easy Change tool holders
Thanks - as they don't give dimensions they are obviously potentially easy to make!

Re: Easy Change tool holders
the critical dimensions are going to be the taper diameter and the rear face of the groove.

Re: Easy Change tool holders
You can buy these from J&L if you get stuck and if you look out for the discounts you can save a few bob. I think the easy change system is great but takes up a lot of room on an already limited head height machine. hence why I raised the column. There are some nice ISO30 collet holders about though.
