So if you have a friendly metalworking neighbour that has a QCTP, see if one of his will fit onto yours.
I standardized on the BXA system for my lathe 14x40, Search "Vee" or "Dickson" and you will find the posting on where I was comparing the different styles and the one I ended up with, but you would be probably better off with the AXA being on a 10X lathe. If an AXA holder will fit your post it will make it easier to get holders in the future, if you choose not to make them yourself.

Oddly enough, the AXA 100 series holder is what I was initially looking at to purchase. As I was looking around to find a place with a
reasonable price on those, I started finding links to guys that had made their own in one form or another. After settling one this one,
I started slinging chips. There is another style I had found that's a bit more complicated in construction.
