I found an Aloris tool post last week in a box of junk I bought several years ago. I had no idea what it was good for back then, but after watching some you tube videos made by "Tubalcain", the light dawned on me, and I realized I had quite a treasure. I made a new center bolt to hold it down onto the compound rest on my 12" Craftsman Commercial lathe, and it works beautifully! It beats the heck out of the original slotted bolt they called a tool post from the factory! Just goes to show, you CAN teach an old dog new tricks
