I wanted to get a couple more tool holders for my import QCTP. I had considered making them, but the cost of materials and time vs. the low price of imports decided against that. I've got plenty of other stuff to do.
And yes, I can see it now, "making it is the fun part... you should buy Aloris, Dorian, etc..."
Nope.
Anyway, I went to the Shars web site and saw an AXA tool holder marked "XL" that would hold a 5/8" bit. That sounded good, but they were out of stock:

So I decided to check "Discount Machine" on ebay, which is Shars as far as I know. I found this:

More than 10 available.
Now why would they be available for the same price on their web page and ebay yet only one of them have it? That's kind of odd. Especially when you consider that the profit will be at least slightly less selling it through ebay.
