Does anybody know of good plans for a QCTP?

NickG:
I currently only have 1 tool slot in my harrison lathe with is really annoying and time consuming when I come to change tools! I really need a quick change tool post but they are quite expensive so I thought of making one?

I have seen a few different types and the only one that appeals to me is a piston with a cam to lock it up solid, but would be interested to hear other peoples thoughs.

Thanks for those guys. A QCTP may be my next project as it will aid other projects  :proj:  :mmr:

Ya know.. the biggest complaint I have with my QCTP.. I dont have enough holders.

I always seem to need a turning tool I dont have mounted!

Thanks for those links.. instead of buying more.. It would be more.. fun to simply make a few.  :ddb:
