I have seen on several u-tube videos, a tool holder for a QCTP, that I am interested in getting. It fits in a standard "wedge" tool mount and holds a HSS square bit. The Hss is positioned such that the smallest side is facing up. The longest side is held vertical to the stock being cut. I hope this gives an idea of what I am looking for. I tried to google a picture of it but without a name a could not find anything. Thanks in advance on any replies.

Unless you are inclined to make your own, there are examples floating around, I can't recommend Gary'e Eccentric Engineering product highly enough. If you watch Blondie Hacks Quinn has been using one recently, as has Mr. Pete. I also recommend his crobalt HHS. All I've had to do is lap mine. To me, the tool holder and HHS steel cost beats inserts hands down. Just my $.02
