Yikes! Toolholder $181, chipbreaker 2 x $24 (R & L), carbide shim $7,
carbide inset $6.50 (min order 10): $242.50 (1 shim, 1 insert).

Too rich for me,

I have an Aloris AXA post, a bit small for my lathe but it came with the deal. The only
Genuine Aloris I've bought for it is their rather neat threading tool holder. That was
worth buying.

For the rest, try CDCO.
