I have some toolholders coming from jeff but suspect there is not much difference in a toolholder or toolpost, there are probably only 1 or two suppliers building them in china. Jeff's toolholders are twice the money for a small piece of pig iron a threaded stul, knurled nut + locking nut, I can't see why such a difference. I tried to see if BUSY BEE or KMS here in Canada had any but seems they have only piston type. I will be directly able to compare both toolholders from Jeff + CDCO in the next week or so + will tell you if any discernable difference. I thought of buying an ALORIS from Jeff but the price is ridiculous. tom
