QCTP holders for a Phase 2 0XA tool post

Nice write up on the DP upgrade, Matt. Enjoyed some of the humor and trials and tribulations you fought through. Great job! Thanks for sharing it here!! ~PJ

thanks PJ! That was my 2nd treadmill upgrade (put one on my Atlas 618) so some things like the wiring were quicker, but there were plenty of other things to sort out that kept me thinking. I also found out that I can, just, swing 7in on my lathe

Finished some more holders last night, this time out of aluminium. Did power tapping in the DP and used a roll form tap, both for the 1st time, which saved me a HUGE amount of time. These holders are all for smaller or more rarely used tools - couple of form tools, threading tool, 8mm SCLR turning/ facing tool and a 6mm boring bar. Need to make a holder to hang them up on the wall and finish the tool holder for my dremel then I should be done with tool holders for a while. Then it's onto the next project!
