Thanks for the replies guys..
That Shars QCTP is the one I have been looking at. I came across some YouTube videos a while back and noticed that instead of milling (since the mill will be bought after the lathe) plate out for the new QCTP, I can thread a bar to hold the QCTP and if needed this fall when the mill gets here, I can mill a plate..
I really have no idea where to start with cutting tools, where to buy, etc.. I'm a complete novice. Rank beginner. LOL.
I do have some calipers from some cheap HF unit to Mitutoyo - so I'm good there.. The rest, are all blanks I need to fill in.
