I'll have to keep an eye on that, especially when I make new holders.too thick of a upper flange on the holder so they don't lock in tight
The tool post is a Rapid Original Type A.@LucknowKen What size did you buy? (distance between vees, or overall width/height) Just curious, yours seems a little smaller than mine, but scale is hard to guess from photos.
-- did you measure using 2 dowel pins and subtract the diameter?I came up with the same measurement, 2.280”
I’m in the process of making my own toolpost. I’m copying the one at work. Rapid original type A. I’ve already made a bunch of tool bit holders but now what to have the post. When measuring up it’s hard to find an exact measurement on the vee’s. I’ve come up with 2.280” as a measurement. When measuring the tool post I came up with the same measurement, 2.280” so that’s what I’m going with since the holders I made fit original tool post just fine.
