(Shooting Star makes an affordable DRO, but the best is Newall)

Yes it is also called a rocker tool post but some people call it a lantern tool post be cause it looks like a lantern.
Yes I am thinking about a quick change but there is no way I am putting a DRO on this thing. Its to expensive and I rather not fill it with holes for mounting.
