    The main unique part of TTS is an R8 3/4" collet with a flat (rather than rounded) bottom face.
    The flat face means that it fits inside the turned groove on the top shoulder of the TTS holder itself, so the ground reference face of the shoulder clamps straight against the bottom of the spindle.

    I used mine just the way it came out of the box.
    You can buy GOOD PARTS or you can buy CHEAP PARTS, but you can't buy GOOD CHEAP PARTS.
