Retaining Key

[Martin W]

What design of draw key did you end up making?

I made the taper key in the picture above. When I am in the shop next, I will get a picture. It works really well, but since I got the boring mill I haven't used it.
The factory I bought the G&L from had a problem on a big project where the Davis Key failed and caused a lot of damage to a bore they were doing. They switched everything to PDQ tooling.
