A cylindrical cutting system, a bit holder assembly, and machine for milling or scarifying road surfaces are disclosed. A bit holder is attachable to a milling platform, and includes an inward facing surface for engaging a corresponding mating surface of the milling platform. The inward facing surface of the bit holder and the mating surface include aligning fastener and pin openings. A fastener and a pin are inserted within the respective openings to couple the bit holder to the milling platform. The mating surface may define a part of a recess formed in the milling platform. A wear element may be disposed at the leading side of the bit holder. Multiple platforms may be coupled together with axially extended platform fasteners.

A parting lathe tool for machining metal is described. This has a clamping seat for receiving a cutting insert and an internal coolant supply system for supplying coolant to a cutting zone. In this case, the coolant supply system comprises at least three coolant outlets. The coolant outlets are fluidically connected to a coolant supply port via at least two separate coolant lines running within the parting lathe tool.

A cutting tool holder has a holder body and a vibration damping weight assembly. The holder body has first and second side surfaces, and a top surface extending there between, and a cutting portion located at a front end of the holder body at the top surface thereof. A weight aperture opens out to the first and second side surfaces and has an aperture inner surface. A weight assembly is located within the weight aperture, having a first weight portion with a through hole, a second weight portion with a threaded hole, a damping ring located along the aperture inner surface, and a fastening member configured to connect together and urge the first and second weight portions towards one another, such that the contact surface of each weight portion presses against the damping ring, within the weight aperture.
