source for reamers?

Post by matthew » Sat Mar 01, 2008 7:16 am

I'm looking for a source for reamers with .0335 (or about 1:30) pitch going from about 15mm at the thick end. No it's not any standard machine taper eg: morse that I can tell. These would be for reaming the conical holes for double bass machine heads. I can't find these even at luthiers' supply shops. Weird.

Any ideas?

Reamers are not cheap Mathew, you may find what you want here, if you do not see what your after give them a call, they are good people to deal with.
