A telescoping die holder apparatus a having a outer covering shell with a tapered rear morse into which a shank is fitted. This shank is associated with a biasing member and is reciprocally mounted to the shell by two retaining pins. Each of the pins extend through the shell into one of the four spaced shank slots that run lengthwise in the shank. Each shank slot is closed at one end and opened at the other end. At their opened ends the slots have outwardly opening chamfer rear ends. One end of the shank allows for a replaceable held die that is used to engage a rotatable work piece stock. At the shell's opposite end, a morse tapered end on the shell fits in the lathe's tail stock. An front optional adaptor can be placed in a large inner diameter opening in an enlarged front end of the shank and is used to accommodate a smaller sized die. The entire telescoping die holder is non-rotatable, including any of its parts, as the lathe turns the retained work piece stock and the stock engages the shank's retained die.

[ What I claim as my invention is:] [1.] A telescoping die holder apparatus for use with a lathe, said lathe having a hollow tail stock first end for receiving and retaining a shell and a rotatable lathe chuck at another end of the shell used to retain a work piece stock that is adapted to engage an enlarged front end of a shank used to hold a die, comprising:an elongated shank section having a length with an enlarged diameter front end for holding a cutting die, said shank section having a hollow interior portion extending through the length of the shank section;a shell having a larger diameter cross section than most of said shank section and adapted to fit over and substantially cover most of said shank section along the shank's length, said shell having a front shank receiving opening and a closed rear end portion with a smaller diameter cross sectional rear section with a tapered rear end; anda compressible biasing means mounted on said shank section between the shank and the shell and positioned to engage said shank's enlarged diameter front end, whereby said shell's opened front end is biased rearwardly with respect to the shank when said biasing means is compressed.
