Actually it needs a tap with a hammer to do the trick, which
really peeves off an associate of mine. He suggested cutting the tool rest
holder with a hack saw to allieviate some of the holders strength, to allow
it to collaspse easier on the tool holders shaft. Shims wrapped around the
holders shaft don't do much either.
