Hi
Lads
I have found some pictures of a "spring tool holder" I made a while ago
If you watch "oxtools" on you tube he explains there uses
I am doing a video but thought you would like these images
It uses broken 1/4 shank milling cutters for tool bits (plenty of them)YikesYikesYikesYikesYikes

Basically if it "digs in" it bends down and out of the work
They are used for wide threads and form tools
