Boxford pull studs for vmc190 tool holders

I think I’m correct in that Boxford used a Coventry quick change tool holder and then added a pull stud to it
I have the dimensions to make some side lock tool holders but I can’t find suitable pull studs
They have an M8 std metric thread so I guess I could turn some my own but as they appear to be hardened I think it would be easier all around if I could buy the pull studs

Does anyone have a source for these pull studs or if you good people happen to have any down the back of your sofas then I’m all ears

Cheers. Paul

Hi paul I hade the same problem as you so I made my own, If you use silver steel you can harden it your self.
hope this helps you.

Did you make them on a cnc lathe ?
If so would you consider sharing the G code please

Many thanks. Paul

Just out of curiosity,
Does Cam bam accommodate lathe jobs ?? or do folks code them from scratch?
