The Basic Kit includes four iron castings, namely the Base , 2 Arms and the Ø6" Table . The base is secured to a baseboard or bench and supports the ground steel column . The column carries the two arms, which are quite free to slide up and down or rotate about it. The table will fit either arm. When tapping a component, the table is located in the lower arm and supports the item to be tapped. The upper arm then carries the tap holder. If riveting is desired, then the lower arm carries the stake, while the upper arm holds the dolly.
Along with the castings, the kit includes a ground steel column and all steel, brass and fasteners to complete the Universal Pillar Tool and all of the fittings, holders and guides.
Please don't forget, you will need a copy of G H Thomas' book, Workshop Techniques, which contains all necessary drawings and notes for this project.
