Mesa Tool - the penguin - 12-01-2012
I had to do a boring job, on the mill this week, and got to use the Mesa Tools boring attachment. The work with my new 2" boring head, it gives you a very solid boring bit.

Jack,
Can you tell me where you got your boring head from? I've read that you have to be careful about what boring head you get to fit that Mesa Tools attachment because some of the boring heads have a different dimension between the two holes for the rods than what the attach was made for.
Thanks,
Ed

My 2" boring head is a Grizzly G9321/G9328 head/arbor combination, its a tight fit, but the Mesa tooling fits.

And of course you just HAD to photograph it on the new V-blocks that you basically stole.
