The project

As no die holder was available for the "Akon holder" for taps in MK3, the missing die holder for the taps was made by the customer.

Procedure

Step 1

Preparation

Firstly, a shaft with a diameter of 60 mm was over-turned to 59 mm.

Step 2

Turn the contour of the holder

The next step was to turn the contour of the holder and drill the inner hole.

Step 3

Drill out the hole

The hole for the MK3 arbor was turned out and the holder was cut off.

Step 4

Turn out the holder

In the next step, the inside diameter for the tap holder (M12) was turned out.
