Abstract
A cutting tool assembly includes a tool body and a tool holder including a longitudinal axis around which the tool holder is configured to spin. The tool holder includes a central portion connected to the tool body comprising a fastener hole perpendicular with the longitudinal axis and configured to receive a securing fastener, wherein the fastener hole is offset from the longitudinal axis. The tool holder further includes an eccentric drive member connected to the cylindrical portion. The tool holder can optionally further include an end alignment cylinder connected to the eccentric drive member.

An apparatus comprising a cutting tool assembly, comprising:
- a tool body;
- and
- a one-piece tool holder connected to the tool body, operable to transfer torque to the tool body, and comprising a longitudinal axis around which the tool holder is configured to spin, the one-piece tool holder comprising:
- a central portion with angled side walls connected to the tool body at a first end of the central portion and defining a fastener hole perpendicular with the longitudinal axis and configured to receive a securing fastener, wherein the fastener hole is offset from the longitudinal axis;
- an eccentric drive member connected at a first end of the eccentric drive member to a second end of the central portion;
- and
- a cylindrical portion connected to a second end of the eccentric drive member;
- and
- wherein the central portion, the eccentric drive member, and the cylindrical portion are each centered about the longitudinal axis.
