Good morning everyone. So as per my other thread, you can see that i've been havign issues with finish ect:

I wanted to grab a carbide holder and insert tool setup to give it a try and see if it's the tool rather than anything else giving me problems.

My question is. What size bit holder do i need so that i don't need to prop it up with spacers ect: ( no height adjustments )

South bend 9 inch lathe. There are no model markings or brandings that i can see anywhere on the unit. There is something stamped into the way on the right side, but it's scratched up a bit and i cannot work it out.

Also open to suggestions and what to get as well as long as it doesn't absolutely kill the wallet :O
