Good buy for the money
Good for large turnings, not so good for smaller parts.

Returned for replacement of same item.
Like the extra long spurs to turn green wood on lathe. The spring loaded center piont did not retract. In fact it didn't move at all. I returned it for a replacement. I think it could work for me if the pin retracted.
