Very nice set of tools.
I have a Clausing MK2, made one of those tool holders myself. One small thing I changed, I put the adjuster just behind the tool, for more support. No big deal.

Thank you Mike, but you are as much to blame for my increase in skill level as I am 
I was about to dive into some hardening/tempering for the O1 tips but discovered a local foundry that does one-offs and small runs for about $10 each. It was hard to argue with that kind of pricing, considering how much I saved over buying a finished live center.
That's one of the problems with these projects: each one leads to another in a sort of "backwards recursion".....I end up making five new devices before I can get to the one I initially planned!
