Review on Complete 7-Piece Quick Change Tool Post Set For Mini Lathe Up To 9 Inches, Featuring Wedge Type 0XA And Compatible With OXA Tool Post by Kazuki Vong

This bolted right up to my Harbor Freight 7x10 lathe. The QCTP comes with a riser block attached to the bottom you'll want to remove if you have a 7" lathe, it is not necessary.The kit was exactly as described. Each piece was individually bagged inside of individual carboard boxes inside of a larger box, and was covered in a heavy coat of light machine oil for rust protection.It has a very solidly build and was trivial to install. Just remove your OEM tool post and the stud it screws into. Remove the nut that holds the stud and riser block to the QCTP. Remove the riser block (if it is not needed to get tools to the center of your work). Install the new stud. Put on the QCTP and re-fasten the nut. Screw the handle onto the handle rod, and then screw this assembly into the hole on on the ring at the top of the post.It has not budged from its place and is much more rigid than the OEM tool post. But, most importantly, while the OEM tool post only supports 5/16" tools, this one supports 1/2". Switching to 1/2" tools made an instant and notable improvement in my sound and quality of cuts.I am a very inexperienced machinist, so YMMV on how helpful 1/2" tooling is, but it certainly seems to work a lot better!
