I recently picked up a Craftsman 101-07403 12x36" lathe, which has the older "lantern" style tool post holder. I'd like to replace it with a quick change tool post, and have been looking at some of the generic/import sets online. Any suggestions on which style to go with, and is one style necessarily any better than the others? Prices seem to be all over the place, but not sure I am ready to spend Aloris money quite yet. Any ones to avoid?
I'd also like to go ahead and order a set of indexable turning/cutting tools, at least until I get comfortable grinding my own tool bits. Any suggestions on those as well? Thanks!
