Product Description
This item is currently out of stock at our warehouse.
The three items necessary for long hole boring are a long drill bit, a hollow tailstock center to accurately locate the bit and, if the work is to be drilled from both ends, a counterbore drive for the headstock.
The hollow center is used, with the tip in position, to mark a circular impression on the wood, the tip is then removed, and the wood located on the ring impression ready for boring through the tailstock. When boring right through, the wood is drilled from one end then reversed, a counterbore dive used to hold the wood in the headstock and the boring process repeated from the tailstock end.
Features:- Fast accurate long hole boring on the lathe
- Twist-lock steel handle with rubber grip
- Locks on to the shaft of the bit
- Allows accurate boring depth
- 880mm (34 5/8") overall 8mm diameter at the tip
