As in the pre-vious case, the 2*/2-in. by 1 3/16-in. slotted hole in body Iis intended to provide auxiliary means for clamping thetool in place. The construction of these tool-holders is such as to holdthe tool bits and forming tools with great firmness underheavy cuts, at the same time permitting their ready removalfor changing or grinding. When the tool bits are new, they rest on the bottom against the wheel lathe tool post
