Beschreibungen/Notizen

• First, I cut off a 1-in.-long section from the straight end of a hex key, making sure the cut surface is square because the piece needs to work as a broach. Then I mount a drill the size of the hex key's major diameter in a lathe's headstock chuck and clamp a piece of steel (approximately [frac12]-in.-thick) in a toolholder secured on the machine's toolpost.
