    I use the omni post tool holders on my 11" Logan. I wanted to get them out of the chip tray so turned up a foam dish and a couple of rods that could be divided up to make hangers. I rigged the Dremel with a drum sander to turn the rods and then touched the short sections on the wheel of the belt sander to match circumference of the base then hot glued them. I used the 1.25" ID of the holders for the OD of the rod and relied on the shrink to give clearance. That worked sweet, just a couple spots from the hot glue needed to be touched with a file. I missed the picture of the foam on the faceplate, but here it is with two coats of joint compound and then poured out and with the axle hole bored holding seven holders. I haven't decided on a wall bracket behind the lathe or on that shelf behind the DRO , but will just bend some 3/8 bar for that.
