Do research on quickchange toolposts to find toolpost with quick fitting ability to fit a small lathe with 6 inch swing.
Double check with you tube users and Shars and other sites info.
Feeling confident I am onto the right toolpost.
Make purchase on Ebay including extra tool holders, just because you need a couple more.
Get new OXO Quick tool post from ebay, Yay!
Clean and make all adjustments to get said toolpost on lathe working smoothly Yay!
Fit toolpost to lathe. Check tool post adjustment with lathe tool to centre using tailstock with dead centre.
Yep only to find maximum height adjustment of tool holders comes up 1/8" short of centre DOH!!!
Back to ebay to buy AXA set.
So if anyone needs an OXO set with 7 tool holders. give me a yell.
