Michael ★★★★★

The swap was straightforward—the included top plate bolted right on with no need to drill new holes. My cuts are noticeably cleaner now, and the AXA toolpost holds the bits rock solid.

William F. ★★★★★

The included top perfectly aligns the tool post with the 9-inch swing, making the upgrade swap straightforward. I had everything I needed to get the lathe running smoothly with the new AXA setup.

Miles ★★★★★

Swapped out the factory compound rest for the included top plate this weekend and the AXA toolpost sits rock solid with zero slop. The kit’s fit on my 9-inch swing is spot-on, and the quick-change action alone made threading work feel effortless.
