1985 Orac Tool Post

Post by streyburn » Thu 12 Apr , 2007 16:21 pm

Group,

I have recently purchased a 1985 Denford Orac. I only received 1 tool holder with the machine. What is the brand of the quick change system and can additional tool holders still be purchased ?

I would suspect that the toolpost is still used on some of the newer models. Can you measure the dovetail and size of the toolpost and advise?

If the toolpost has a name and number on it all the better.

Let us know then contact Denford Inc for the parts
