It was Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/QWORK-Triangle-Precision-Machinist-Measurement/dp/B08GLW1J5Z/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1IFTA0MR9SYHL&keywords=angle+plates+machinist&qid=1668344217&sprefix=angle+plates%2Caps%2C71&sr=8-2

Just got this via UPS:

I've had a full set of collets for a while, and only used them in collet blocks. This opens up a lot of possibilities. Adapter plate (from LMS) is due tomorrow.

You suck!
I've wanted one of those for a while now. I also have a full set of collets. Where did you buy it from?

eBay. Search for seller "tyllq" and add it to your watchlist. After a day or two, he'll drop the price by about 9 bucks. That makes it the best price available.
Note that this does NOT come with an adapter plate. That was another 40 something dollars from LMS. All the ones I found with an adapter were for threaded nose spindles.

You were right. I got an offer for $10.21 off of the price so I ordered it. Free shipping.

You want your "you suck" now or when it gets here?
Got my adapter plate from LMS today. Gotta mount it on the lathe and turn the boss down by 1mm.

It isn't real without pictures so hold off on the "you suck".
I ordered the adapter plate this morning.

Got the adapter plate today. The chuck should be here tomorrow, but I doubt it will be. Not a big deal since I have enough projects to last me until I expire.

RE: Latest Delivery - rleete - 12-24-2022
I'm scared to machine mine.
I have to sway I'm once again impressed by LMS customer service. When I discovered it was cheaper to send to a business, I had the package sent to my work. Unfortunately, I only changed the street address, and not the city or zip. That sent up a red flag, and Stephanie called me to confirm. They still sent it out that day, and I got it in two. Thanks, LMS and a kudos to USPS for another on-time delivery.
