Hi everyone. I am a shop teacher and have been using a cnc router and plasma cutter for years. Now that our other shop teacher retired I am going to teach a cnc class and want to use this curriculum. I bought the tooling kits for the mill building blocks. I do not have a holder for the 3" Kennametal shell mill. I know I need a cat40 and have the pull studs on hand. How do I know which shell mill holder to go with it? This is probably a dumb question, but would rather ask then get the wrong thing.
Thanks

Here is the Kennametal information about the cutter - 3" Cut Diam, 0.63" Max Depth, 1" Arbor Hole, 1.97" High, Indexable High-Feed Face Mill
Takes 4 Inserts, ZDET16M… Insert Style, C5720VZ16-A3.00Z4R Toolholder Style, Series 5720VZ
You would want to order whatever type tool holder system your mill uses (Cat-40, Cat-50, BT-40, etc) with a 1" pilot diameter shell mill holder.

Arbor size. Maritool has these holders for a great price.
