	This tool post is based on an Aloris piston type quick change tool post.  
I couldn't pruchase one of suitable size so I designed what you see here.  This is
sized to fit an Atlas-Craftsman 618 lathe, but it will fit other small lathes of similar
size.  Basic dimensions are given.  The builder will use his own judgement as to fits
between the mating parts.  I did not include the "T" slot block or the 3/8" clamping
screw as these must be made to fit each individual lathe.

	I have made this tool post using these drawings so they should be quite correct.
This is also a second generation design from an even smaller version that I built to fit
a 3" lathe.

Enjoy!!
