I recent purchased a tailstock clamp block for my Jet Mini from Rick Herrell...finally got around to installing it to replace the stock round clamp block. I've got to say this made a huge improvement in virtually eliminating tailstock creep when tightening the tailstock hand wheel!
Even though it is just a small block of steel, Rick really did a wonderful job machining it. There are no sharp edges at all. This was a quick easy change out and adjusting was a breeze.
So, a big Cheer for Rick and his products!
