Great Tool Post

[claudef]

Well I got tired of the square tool post with the continuous shimming on my Compact5 lathe. I made this QCTP and am very happy with the outcome, the performance is as sturdy as the square one, I also made many adaptors so tools are always ready for use. There was a small piece of adapter material left over so I made an Indicator holder with it. I made the dovetail cutter from an old spot face cutter I had. I plan on changing all the ¼-20 cap screws for set screws next week. This is a fairly easy project if you have a mill and lathe.
Yes “SteveC” I used my home made Drill/mill for this project.
