Hello, All.

As some of you know, I'm in the closing stages of a process rebuilding a lathe that is essentially identical to a Jet 1024. (Mine is a 1976 vintage Kin Shin Model KS3.5FK.) Any recommendations (pro or con) on a satisfactory QCTP for this lathe?

Thanks,
Terry
 
I have a Phase II AXA QCTP on my Grizzly 12in swing mill. This is working well for my needs. I purchased from ENCO at the time. MSC has closed down ENCO so I am not sure of the MSC price these days, likely to be more than I paid.

Shars also may have decent QCTP offerings.

I still have an Aloris BXA with 4holders which I'm trying to sell for a friend.
Don't know if that would work for you.
She is Aloris in decent shape if you are interested.
PM me, then I'll send pics.

Aloris AXA or equivalent import for a 10inch!!

Thanks, Dave. Phase II is high on my list of choices. I suspect competitive pricing may be available on ebay.

Thanks, Daryl.

I have a BXA on another lathe, and I'm certain it won't work - too big.

Thanks anyway,

No doubt, that would be the gold standard. Not sure it makes sense economically for this lathe, though. Sure would like to find a nice used one.
