My first thought was that I might have to make a holder for the little
boring bars that will fit in the QCTP holder. I'll be drilling and boring
modestly deep for that size tool.


Making a holder may be less trouble than fishing a dropped one out of
the chip tray.

****** HA! I had not thought of that. I have lost parts in the chip tray.
A couple times it was faster to make another part than to look for the first
one.


Or fab a rake so you can empty the tray more often?
