Use of the Two-Position Tool Post

It is not unusual to have to stop and change lathe tools several times during the machining of a part. The change may be to switch from a left hand tool to a right hand tool, from a sharp nosed tool to a radiused tool or from a roughing tool to a finishing tool. Whatever the reason, each change requires a little setup time. This time can be reduced by using a Two Position Tool Post. Each Sherline two-position tool post mounts two lathe tools at once. By having one or more of these tool posts with your favorite lathe tools pre-mounted in them, you can simplify your work and reduce the time required to change tools.
