??? All of the 4 ways like in yer pic? that I have seen &
used have? ball detentes in the bottom so the tool post moves in
increments & is it's square on one side if ya use the
detentes?? , ya may flip yers over & see if it's missing the
ball & spring or if it even had one . It should be square for
the other 3 sides . If ya have a 123 block , squaring up the tool
post is a breeze . I just put it between the tool post & chuck
& run the carriage up with the tool pose slightly loose , it
will square itself & then ya tighten the tool post . My QCTP
is a wedge type & I got it at either CDCO tools or CME tools ,
good quality & the price was good . With ya being over the
pond I'm guessing that freight will be a matter . I have bought
from Chronos in the past , I know they have them .
