I wanted to share this. This site has a lot of content!
The person who hosts the site appears to be a fanatic. He makes most of his own tool bits. He makes a homemade cnc mill with a Sieg x3. He did a motor conversion as well. There is mini-lathe stuff there too.
The URL is machine translated version

I did some looking on this site today, and found that this person made their own:
Boring head (regrettably translated as "bailing head"), quick change tool post, knurling holders, sphererizing tool, and get this: a homemade rotary table, and much more.

Here's a link to Mr. Ishimura's English version of his website. I've had email correspondence with him and he handles English very well. It's Babelfish that can't handle Japanese/English very well.

I have the stock squirreled away to do one of his tilting angle tables and want to build it soon. His grinding rest is great too. Lotsa good stuff to build there!
While we're on the subject, here's a couple more links with great, usable information from very talented HSM's.:)
