Abstract: An apparatus for drilling out a plug of material, the apparatus comprising: a base plate having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a central longitudinal axis; a circumferentially-extending side wall extending distally from the top surface of the base plate, the circumferentially-extending side wall terminating in a circular distal end surface; a drill bit centered on the central longitudinal axis of the base plate and extending distally therefrom, the drill bit comprising a distal portion, a proximal portion and an intermediate portion extending between the distal portion and the proximal portion; wherein the intermediate portion of the drill bit comprises a first laterally-extending flat comprising a cutting edge disposed a first distance away from the central longitudinal axis towards the circumferentially-extending side wall and a second laterally-extending flat extending a second distance away from the central longitudinal axis towards the circumferentially-extending side wall, and further wherein the
Abstract: An adjustable deburring tool has a cutting head and a shank. The cutting head has a projecting ridge with a recessed portion. The shank has a groove that communicates with an open ended and open sided threaded bore. The ridge is slidably located in the groove with an adjusting screw screw-threaded in the threaded adjusting bore and partially located in the recessed portion of the ridge so that rotation of the adjusting screw causes lateral movement of the cutting head thereby adjusting the cutting diameter of the deburring tool.
Abstract: An attachment for use with a tool having a cutting surface on one end of a bar consists of a collar that has an opening corresponding substantially to the cross-sectional configuration of the bar and is frictionally supported thereon in any angular or axially-orientation. The collar has a support opening which receives a cutter insert that has its inner end supported on an abutment and is releasably retained within the support opening by a recessed fastener.
