Tool holders for T2 (I think) quick change toolpost

[M250cnc]

The toolplate does look like a good way of doing it, but more awkward to set up and not as many tools. Also limits travel I suppose. Great for small jobs like in the video though. It's a similar concept to what I did with the milling machine here:


I will still want to use the lathe manually when it's converted to CNC.

This is what i made for drilling, ground all over and i have different size bushes made for different size drills etc

I had to make one particular holder be perfectly ground as the slots can be surprisingly a long way off.

Agree the toolplate would only suit small parts and be time consuming to set.
