Is there a way to utilize the T-slot in the compound? That is, just slide out the QCTP, and slide in the ball turner? Or is that a bad idea?

I am going to subscribe because a ball/radius turner is also on my "to do" list. I was thinking of doing the same thing, just using the "T" nut in the cross-slide as the attachment point, but I haven't dug deep enough in to see if that will reach the lathe centerline.

If anyone has any pictures of their ball/radius turning tool attached to the "T" nut I would be greatful to see it.
