David where did you get yours?
I got mine at Shars (on ebay) but only because I was ordering other stuff. LMS and others carry the same one.

David and Mikey...
Nice work there to the both of you!
The clamp-style tools are indeed a big step forward but, you'll jump a light year ahead by using precision wheels. Darkzero (Will) on this list turned me on to the ones from this place http://accu-trak.com/company_profile.html and I'm sold! Try the convex type which have an apropriately contoured spiral on the radiused edges. It's designed so that as you clamp into the work, the lines stay straight as the effective cutting diameter decreases. -Cat's Meow!
The cheapo knurl wheels that come with your basic $30 holder tend to have very uneven thread spacing. I even had a few where the center holes were not centered. -Causes all kinds of problems.
