Thanks

Here's a pick of my heads Arc . Two are 3/4 heads , the small is a 9/16s head . Let me round up all the chasers as they are spread out amongst various places . I'm doing the best I can ! What size shanks does your turret take ? I have some good stuff . Tapping heads , floating holders etc .

Thanks your too generous. Pretty sad compared to some of the guys on here.

No worries. I really do appreciate you (chasing) them down ... Sorry bad joke. But seriously I do appreciate you.

The turret takes 1 - 1/2" shank tools, on my machine, I held the (larger) shank die head in a flanged holder bolted on to the turret face.

The two die heads look to be the external trip type, not the pull off type; external trip needs some sort of bracket to contact the die head's trip contact to cause it to open when the end of the thread is reached, all my die heads were the pull off type, so that when the stop on the turret was reached, the thread would pull against a spring in the die head causing the movable part of the head to continue to move forward a short distance and trip, causing the chasers to open,

I have 1 1/4" and 1" flanged tool holders. The hole in the Turret is 1 1/4". Definitely interested in some of the other stuff you mentioned. You may have things that I don't even know exist. So I appreciate the suggestions.
