HOME MADE LATHE QCTP
velocette:
Hi Griff
I agree "Good Attitude" may you have many more successes with your "Mad Modding" projects.
Thanks for sharing and encouraging other to have go at making their own tooling that just does the job and gives you satisfaction of "I Made IT".

I'm not sure about the height adjustment mechanism :scratch: but the C1/3/6 QCTP's at the bottom of this page.

Share some of the virtues of the Dickson and others in that the tool holders are pulled into the tool post, not pushed away from it. Cheap as chips so no idea how good they are but not difficult to copy should anyone really want to make their own?

Not so I'm afraid it is a piston type that pushes the tool holder into the taper of the dove tails moved from an eccentric in the toolpost.
This is the same principal as the "Griffin Tooling"

You're looking at the wrong one.

I had a C3 toolholder and made my own toolholders ,and they worked well but not a patch on the dixson I have now , there is another patern similar to the piston type but with a wedge , Doubleboost has one on his Harrison .
