Quick change tool post question
I paid $159 from Bills Tool CRib (on the web) for a wedge type Aloris clone.
Best price around and good service.
Incidently, it's a BXA/200 type and I have it on MY Sheldon 13" WM-56P

Hi
I would be interested in it, email me what you would like to have for
it. Maybe we can do something.
Thanks

I am going to treat myself to a quick change tool post for my 13 inch
Sheldon. I was looking at the Enco catalog and they have the Phase 11
for $109. and $199.00 One is a piston type and the other wedge. Is
there a difference that should make me spend the extra money?
Wacked the rest..
I bought one of those Phase II package deals with the piston type tool
post.
When I came to a job that required switching tool holders repeatedly I
found out why they are so much cheaper!
They aren't repeatable to anything better than .010".
Ended up setting it on a bench and buying an Aloris wedge style that has
repeatability in the .0005" range.
I wasted my money on that POS, and had to buy a better one anyway. I
HATE
when that happens.
Oh, it's a 200/BXA size if anyone wants it.
