...I saw a couple of YouTube videos (one from Tom at Ox Tools, and one from John on his Doubleboost channel) that mentioned a swan neck or spring tool holder. These aren't new, and Williams and Armstrong made them for lantern style tool posts decades ago.
And for those that have never seen one, there are a couple of them in this collection. Both parting and threading tools are shown in the spring configuration. Apologies for quality, these came from an old book, Care and Operation Of A Lathe courtesy Sheldon Machine Tool Corporation.
