    I bought a second machine that uses the Kwik 200 tool holders.  I didn't really want to split up tool holders between the two machines.  Not for
    stuff I would routinely use.  I ran across a discount listed in the
    title that wasn't shown in the actual price and quantity discounts, so I dropped them a message and bought all they had from two listings, plus
    an extra, and some extra closer nuts and stop screws (in the bag).

    The big benefit to these Accura Flex tool holders is the AF collets are
    still sold in a full range of sizes by Devlieg.  In regular weld-on
    style set screw holders smaller holders are hard to find, but these
    Accura Flex collet holders will fill all those needs.

    Now I suppose I have to get off my tucas and finish retrofitting that
    machine.

    I have a small batch of Accura Flex Kwik 200 tool holders already, but I
    had never noticed they were threaded for a stop screw in the back. At
    first I couldn't figure out why there were set screws in the bag.
