Today, in the shop, I got wild hair crosswise and decided to change from the Dorian QCTP, back to the Aloris QCTP. So I spent a couple of hours resetting tool heights, as the Aloris is about 3/8" shorter than the Dorian.
I guess part of this is to determined, if I'm going to sell either of them. I really don't need two QCTP for one lathe. I not sure either is actually better than the other, but I used the Dorian for about 2 years, now I'll give the Aloris a shot.
It took some time to reset, the 44 QCTP blocks. I used a 4" hardened center pin, in the chuck, to set the center height for each tool.
