Yes my Triumph has them.Jokes aside, don't some of the big boy lathes have feed knock off collars with micrometer adjusted stops?

My graziano did that. It had 4 stops I think from memory. It’s was old but waaaaay ahead of its time. Even had a hydraulic copy follower on it. Think it was 60s / 70sNo it automatically trips.
