Hi everyone. Just got this tool post with seven tool holders. Most are swiss made some are from W.Germany.
The problem is the tool post seems way to small for my lathe. In order to get it to height the tool holder is only clamping on half the splines.
Im also going to have to make a new t-nut stud and maybe the t-nut itself.
The only solution i see is to make the t-nut higher than the compound rest top surface.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Below are some pics of my lathe and the tool post it came with along with pictures of the Multifix sitting on the compound.
Thanks
