There are some on GrabCAD worth looking at.
Effectively you have 4 options.
Manual stuff like Multigrip / Dickson holders.
Gang Tooling, might be worth a look pending what type of stuff you turn.
Turret - rachet / pawl
Turret - pnuematic (or similar) locator function
There is a guy on ebay making very decent looking turrets - sells them for around £500 ish. The only reason I havent bought is that they do max 10mm tools and Id like larger for my lathe.

Not seen him list them like this (in kit form) before.
Spoken to him extensively on whatsup, does this for day job too, seems to know his stuff, worth a look. He also has a gang tool setup for sale but might be too big for a Myford.
