Broaching or ?

[Dell]

Hi mekanik
I have purchased a 11mm broach from Slater tools and they said I should be able to press it , so I am going to give it a go , as the part to use it in a lathe is a lot of money, if I was going to use it a lot then I would buy one but as I am probably only going to use it once ( hopefully) we will see.

Hi Dell
I wouldn't risk trying to force the broach by trying to push it, i used to look on ebay for rotary broaches but a lot of them came from America at about £80 a pop and i wanted metric hex sizes so i could make screw fixings. if you do a web search for diy wobble broach you should find something, they are not difficult to make. if you ask over at the model engineers website i am sure someone over there will have a rotary broach and would be able to help.
