    Best suggestion, check with Tormach, P/N 31706 Power Draw Bar Kit, $1,193.50 and you'll also want the foot pedal kit P/N 31728 for $68.45.

    I bought them both when I bought my machine, and now, I wouldn't be without them.

    The ATC came along 3 or 4 months after I got my machine. There were a few times when the ATC would have been a good thing to have but most of what I do requires short cycle times, so I have to stay at the machine anyway. Right now, I don't have the ATC, and I don't miss it.

    You can buy GOOD PARTS or you can buy CHEAP PARTS, but you can't buy GOOD CHEAP PARTS.

    I use the Pneumatic PDB from Tormach, the little hand switch for it that goes on the spindle does wear out, I replaced mine with a latching switch which I like much better, but you need a spindle interlock to go with it.

    I wouldnt be without it now that I have gotten used to having it.......
