MT2 tooling options?
#1
My Clausing mill has an MT2 in the spindle.
So far I have ordered a MT2 to ER-25 adapter, I have a full set of collets.
This is fine for mills, drills and reamers.

What I am having some difficulty with is finding any other tooling.
I have some R8 tooling for the Sieg, but cannot use it with the
Unfortunately I have an awesome facemill for the Sieg...Slaphead

What I need is a fly cutter or a face mill and a boring head.
For the fly cutter I could use the 1/2 inch straight shank ones.
This is the only option I can see that would work with either the MT2 collets or the ER-25 collets.

I do not have any ideas on the boring head though...

Any ideas or tips from people that have MT2 mills would be great!!

Andrew,

Some guys make their own fly cutter, they buy a MT2 blank end which is machinable and marry the two items together.

Just a thought.
