Question about QCTP

[Defender92]

I just received my new Shars BXA QCTP for my Clausing Colchester 13. I put a Shars AXA QCTP on my Craftsman Atlas 12 not too long ago.

The first thing I noticed was how much bigger the T-slot was on my Colchester. My first thought / concern was “is there enough metal to mate with the QCTP?” Is this gab that will be under the QCTP too much?? I’m concerned about rigidity and chatter issues here.

Not a problem as long as the T nut is big enough to span the radius enough.
