Toolmakers Adjustable V Blocks P1

These cool little adjustable height precision v-blocks are an excellent toolroom training project. Made from tool steel they will test your skills in the machine shop doing mill, lathe and grinding work typical in precision toolrooms all over the world. I made my pair from A2 tool steel and heat treated them to 60RC. The knob ended up being brass and nuts are bronze combined with a stainless steel adjustment screw. I will make PDF's of the drawings available to folks that want to make their own. These blocks are used to support and adjust the height of shafting during various setups for cutting keyways and flats. A nice project you can have fun building and use on a regular basis.
