Very nice
Would like to know where you get the round flange.

Thats really nice. I've been wanting to make one but you know how it goes. Too many project going at once. But thank you for the video, you have inspired me.

Nice Video!! I make all my lathe rests, jigs and even made a bowl turning lathe myself, its great knowing how to weld! One thing I find helpful is when welding nuts on is to throw some never seize on, especially with 3/8 nuts or smaller. look like you had no troubles at all through, just sucks when you have to cut them off and put on a new one from it arcing across the threads.

Very nice - only thing I would do differently is use solid bar stock for the arms that hold the wheels, eventually the hollow square tube will crush from the hold bolts. Saves a step on welding the tabs in the end for the wheels, just drill through the end of the bar stock. Like StuinTokyo, I would like to know if you sourced the flange ring or made it up yourself.

Nice job! Now, would you consider selling it or making one to sell?
-
Great steady rest!
I can make everything you show, except the round ring, did you fabricate that yourself, or do you have a source for it?
Cheers!

Brilliant was just thinking of some long distance hollowing work - the bounce had me a bit worried.
Wonder if it will work in wood?
Cheers

Craftsmank, Just replying to your post about the" Bounce" not sure what you ment by that. If you are asking if it could be made of wood, If you have the wood it can be made! Good luck
