Before I made a quick-adjusting toolpost, I kept a vitamin bottle full of
old feeler gauge blades. Select an assortment of blades, scrap sheet
metal, or whatever that give you the adjustment you want and KEEP IT WITH
THE TOOL, held with a rubber band. Then whenever you put that tool in
the holder, the shimming is all ready.

I have to shim my 1/4" and 5/16" tools on the stock 4-way tool post.
I found that it always
totals 3/8" to get them on center. Should I order some 3/8" tools or
stick with the shims?
Thanks, Damon
