[Figs. 1659] to [1661], show this tool-holder applied to various kinds of work, thus in [Fig. 1659] the tool is planing under the underneath side of a lathe bed flange, while in [Fig. 1660] it is acting upon a V-slideway and escaping an overhanging arm, and in [Fig. 1661] it is shown operating on a V-slideway and in a T-groove.
Fig. 1662.
[Fig. 1662] represents a tool holder by Messrs. Bental Brothers, the tool being held in a swivelled tool post, so that it may be used as a right or left-hand tool. In this case the front rake must be forged or ground on the tool, and there is the further objection common to many tool holders, that the tool if held close in to the tool post is partly hidden from view, thus increasing the difficulty of setting it to the depth of cut.
