Around 5 years ago I bought a quick change tool post for my old lathe and today I finally fitted it after making an adaptor for the top slide.
Also while tidying up I found a faceplate, it fits but the register isn't deep enough and it hits the threads on the spindle before getting seated, its 11/2" x8 tpi.
Got no way to hold so I just reversed it and screwed it on, then machined it deeper behind the register.
Once that was done I mounted it and faced it.
