Picked up an older used Monster hollowing Articulated Arm Hollowing system. The 3/8" and 1/4" tool holders were missing. Looking for anyone that may have a set of these....thanks

Monster tool Holders

The Monster Systems did not come with adapters for 3/8" and 1/4" tools. The system came with all tools that were 5/8" in diameter. Randy did make me an adapter to go from 5/8" to 3/4"tools which I use to this day with the Monster Captured System. I did find adapters that were 5/8" to 1/2", to 3/8" and to 1/4" but they were found from a sale of another turners tool auction. I use these mostly with the articulated Monster System.
My monster captured system came with 3/8 and 1/4" adapters..... maybe he had started selling them when I bought it. I bought a 3/16 swivel adapter I think from Lyle Jameison that fits it.
Steve, I bought a Monster system back around 2010. Then when I went to the 2012 AAW symposium in San Jose I met Randy face to face for the first time. I wanted adapters in various sizes and I gave him drawings of what I wanted. He made the adapters for me and after that began to sell them to others as accessories.
That would make sense. I would have bought my system later than that, maybe around 2014....guestimate.
Thanks everyone.......Special thanks to Bill Blasic who provided me with the tool bit holders I needed to complete my set.
