I purchased the Phase II wedge type about 6 years ago.? I've been very happy with it.? I bought CDCO toolholders and found that their dimensions are a bit variable (the locking handle locks in a variety of different positions with the CDCO, but in the same place with the? Phase II).? The variability in dimensions has had no practical significance in the use of the toolholders.? Amazon has the Phase II set for $223 with free shipping.

Kurt, I looked in CDCO, , but I cannot copy a link to the post and tool holders because the page I am looking at doesn't have a link to it. However, it is item #29461 and includes the quick change post and 5 tools holders. It is called AXA Piston Type Tool Post for Lathe up to 12" and in the description it specifically says it fits an Atlas 10" and 12" Stan

I would go with an AXA.? I bought mine from CDCO (Bostar) and it has worked out well.
I have the Atlas 10" lathe. I do not know what the center to center is, but the bed length the carriage rides on is almost 36" from where it meets the headstock to the end of the bed. In this group it had previously been determined that it is of vintage 1957 or so.
I would like to replace the rocker tool holder with a quick change tool holder. Can anyone recommend a good one for this lathe? Stan
