Anyone familiar with a rotary broaching tool made by Slater? The tool itself consists of a shank ( straight or MT taper) and a rotating broaching-bit chuck offset 1 degree in the axial. Bits are chucked in the rotating chuck and, in a manual lathe, the shank goes into the tailstock. The workpiece rotates as the bit is plunged into the workpiece. The result is a broached hole, shape determined by the the broaching bit. My question: what if you wanted to broach a workpiece that can't be rotated, and wanted to use the tool in a mill quill, would that work?
