Quick Change Tool Post for mini-lathe - clarification

<< < (2/4) > >>

ja2on:
the one I have uses the standard tool post handle to hold down the tool post
and has a allen head bolt in the side to tighten the grip on the removable tool holder

the large QRTP is to big for us I think

It worries me that the a2zcnc post is ally as well

That helps  :thumbup:

EDIT the little machine shop qctp comes in at £82.86 inc shipping
import duty will be a lottery though we may or may not get clobbered it depends who they post it with
I have had stuff from the states via normal post and been ok but stuff that comes via ups and other companies have always collected duty

raynerd:
Darren, did you order direct from USA and did you get hit by customs? Or did you manage to find a UK supplier.

Chris

Darren:
Yes, yes & No

But I think there is somewhere in the UK selling them now, I just don't know where.
Someone here will and pipe up shortly.... :thumbup:

raynerd:
Cheers Darren...I hope someone knows where these can be found over here.

thanks for your help so far, glad I posted -  I was convinced the ArcEuroTrade ones didn`t have a centre release bar and just used the normal locking nut.

Cheers
Chris

It's expensive, but mine has stood the test of a cack handed newby and time

Ups is always a killer, I ask people from the US not to use them or I don't purchase. It's as simple as that.
