    Hi JR
    Again great idea
    I think I am going to see if I can change the clamping arrangement on my standard Colchester bed stop to this locking method. I do not think it will be too much of an issue. If it works I will be pleased, to be able to move away from the socket head cap screw, which keeps filling with swarf will be great.
    I have a friend who manages a bike shop so I will see if they have any of old bikes I can use.
    Thank you again for posting this, if I can get it to work this will be a great improvement to my lathe.
