Im looking for a 30 taper holder that will hold 2Morse tooling.
Cheap or Ive got some New 30 taper face mill holders to trade.
Also needing an Extended Nose 30 Taper endmill holder so I can run woodruff key cutters on a horizontal mill. Prefer 1/2" but can bush if bigger
Again..cheap or trade.

I picked up a lot of 40 taper holders on eBay - generally $10 to $15 apiece. Think some of it came from some of the sellers out your way - Reliable and others.

Gunner,
What is your drawbar thread ?
( You could likely use cat or bt with a drawbar change)
Ive made up drawbars for all the various threads already. I currently use Standard 30, Cat and BT tooling.
A Gorton MillMaster and a very sweet Clausing horizontal miller.
A gent in the UK has been offering the 30T-2MT holders on Ebay..but by the time I add in shipping etc..its pretty expensive for hobby stuff.

Turn the shanks down to 1/2 in dia on the drills as you use em and be done with it.........
Easily done with a carbide bit, AR2 for a couple dollar a pop or so in bulk.
Or buy a cheep silver&deming set..............I have 4 cnc machines and around two hundred holders in 40 taper...
None of em are mt#2.
I have a number of other MT2 tooling of various sorts Id like to use in the mills, beside drill bits. Drill bits I have lots of. Everything from tap holders to Versa Tap tapping heads. Plus some specialty tooling I use for gun smithing. $25 or or less for an adapter is cheap if I can use the MT2 stuff I have. But thanks for the suggestions.
My home shop is a hobby shop, and as such , no family money goes into it, little as there is.
