Abstract: A configurable tooling block for a CNC turret lathe holds a plurality of tools at a single index position of the turret. The tooling block includes a main body, a mounting flange, and a coolant manifold removably mounted on the main body on either a first side face or a second side face of the main body. The main body has a plurality of tool-receiving openings, at least one of which is a rectangular opening for receiving an OD tool. The manifold may be provided with individually operable valves for controlling coolant flow to output ports associated with the tool-receiving opening, and may be made of a material that is lighter than the material used to form the main body to reduce overall weight.
