I would never call myself a machinist but I do have a little South Bend, and hand an Atlas before that. Did not take me long to drum up a Chinese version of an Aloris. LOL You are right!!! screwing with a tool post takes a lot of time and "fun out"

Another thing I did along those lines is to use indexable replacement bits in HSS (not carbide) from Arthur Warner

Got a set of those too.
I had a need for the small tilting vise and the tool holder both on my little lathe at once , long story short, I let it feed too far and stripped something in the crossfeed. Think its in the slide itself, too dam cold , and too lazy to mess with it yet. Guess I`ll wait till I need it again!!
What do they call that ____??
