    No Hole? No Problem – Precision Corner Rounding Made Easy!

    A common machining task is rounding off the end or corner of a flat bar. Traditionally, we drill a hole in the part and use that hole to align with the spindle or rotary table bore. But there are many jobs where a hole just isn’t needed — or even practical. That's where this tool comes in.

    This is the spindle quadrant stop. It's designed to eliminate the need for that alignment hole, while still giving us an accurate location — and it's incredibly simple. Aside from your clamps, this is the only tool you'll need. No buttons, no reference edges — all the alignment and location is handled right here. It even holds the test indicator!
