Try Enco or CDCO for your quick change tool holder set (about $90)

CDCO has the best deal on economy chucks

Books: web search for "American machine tool" they have a nice Free downloadable packit on both lathe and the mill operation

also the Home shop machinest is a good starter book,

Great project, Have Fun!

The chuck in the picture is from CDCO and I can see why the quick change would be nice, then again the lantern style is very adjustable.

I will probably pick up one of the machinist hand books off amazon for cheap.

Hey it cut 1/4" 28 tpi just fine for me a minute ago.

Also I be uploading a WAI in front of our Bridgeport which I also rebuilt (theres a story behind that one).
