Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Madison ★★★★★

Swapping out the old compound rest for the included top was straightforward, and the AXA toolpost itself locks in much more securely than I expected. The whole setup feels far more rigid now for parting and threading work.

Lily ★★★★★

The included top swap was dead simple—bolted right on and the AXA QCTP locked in true within minutes. Tool changes are noticeably quicker now, and the whole setup feels far more rigid than the old SC50 did.

Hannah T. ★★★★★

Was a bit worried about compatibility, but the included top plate lined up perfectly with my 7600's compound rest slots. The AXA post is solid and gives much better tool holding rigidity than the original SC50 setup.
