3d Printed Lathe Toolpost Drill for Myford ML10
thingiverse
This precision toolpost drill, 3D printed to perfection, delivers accurate results that are extremely useful for various applications. It is particularly well-suited for drilling holes in collars for grub screws, using a slitting saw, or creating radial holes on the face of turned parts. The drill can be used either perpendicular to the lathe's centerline or parallel, ensuring optimal performance. Its design allows it to automatically sit perfectly centered without requiring any height adjustments. In use, attaching a dial indicator to a drill in the chuck holder reveals a maximum sideways movement of 0.1mm when the electric drill is pushed firmly from side-to-side, demonstrating its impressive stability. Given the Myford ML10's small size (3¼" center height and 13" between centers), this 3D printed drill becomes an invaluable accessory, elevating the lathe's capabilities to new heights. This ingenious design was inspired by a cost-effective (£7 in 2020) "Silver Precision Metal C10 ER16A 100L Straight Shank CNC Collet Chuck Holder", which serves as the foundation for this innovative tool.
