I need to slice a piece off of a 1 1/4 inch socket. Also need to cut
a slot into that socket.
Sure would be nice to have a rotary tool add-on...
1. That holds the rotary tool stationary.
2. Slowly and steadily moves or spins the work into the rotary tool
cut off wheel (or other attachment).
It's called a lathe and a toolpost bracket to hold the rotary tool. -
Poor man's tool post grinder.
And it works extremely well for light work . Use foil , rags , newspaper or
something to keep the grinding grit off the ways . Your lathe will thank you
