Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

W wedge style clamp has more contact area and provides substantial rigidity. Little to no chatter with 1/2 tools. What still is a puzzle is the provision of two cutting tool holder slots.

Purchased it for my grizzly g0768 lathe. Removed the original tool holder and replaced the mounting stud. After a small mod to my cross slide, this for my lathe perfectly.



Cons

Seemed to me to defeat the purpose of being solid.

Quality


Quality as expected but good enough for a hobbyist


Best finishes ive ever seen on this lathe with the same sharp tools


Dont even waste your time with the aluminum blocks this one may be 4x the price but you get what you pay for


I think it will do the job fine for me although not the quality of the much higher priced toolpost

Price


Still an extremely good set for a good price here though


I this it was a very good value considering the price


I was skeptical about buying this thing the price is kind of high for me since i’m just a novice and wasn’t sure about pulling the trigger

Shipping


Seller was fast in shipping and quick to respond to my public question here on this add

Competitiveness


Much more ridgid less chatter less tool tip chipping etc

    Id like to adjust the arm position as in the release position its over one of the tool holders and barely lets you get the holder off

    If you own a lathe u should be able to make this fit

    If not you should sell your lathe cheap to someone who can
