Quick Change Toolpost for Storebro

[Hawkeye]

Shawn, thanks again for those cutters. They make the biggest, best chips of any I've used so far.

Once I had a couple of toolholders ready to use, it became apparent that I'd have to move on the phase 2 - adding the cam-lock to the holding clamp. Tightening the clamp meant taking the tool out of the holder to get the Allen key into the bolt. I had designed the clamp to do just that, at a later date.

All that was needed was to shorten the stem on the clamp, make a fitting for the cam to pull on, and modify a grade 8 bolt to make the cam.
   

I know that some feel that you need to have the operating levers permanently attached on a QCTP. I prefer to have no obstructions where I'm working. It's no big thing, in a hobby environment, to reach for the wrench, which is always close at hand.
