I agree with GP,.if you need to save money, go with the CDCO tool post. They are nice and I have no complaints.? The holders are inexpensive also.

I want to switch QC tool posts for
something I can easily find extra holders. Looking at the
Aloris fit chart an AXA is called out for all Atlas lathes.
It looks like a BXA would also fit. What size are you using
with your 12" Atlas. I'm leaning toward the BXA
because I could also transfer this tooling to my 13"
lathe later. My only concern is the bulk of the tooling
limiting getting close the tailstock. I am currently using
surplus mini lathe tooling with the post measuring 2.5 x
2.5" with a spacer on the bottom. Thanks in advance for
your input.
