Dear Forum,
I have been on the search for a telescoping steady rest and a telescoping follow rest for my 1972 South Bend 10K lathe for a while now. Here is what the steady rest looks like.
I'm pretty confident on how to identify this part. My understanding is that it is part number SRD-100K as marked on the bottom of the casting like this:
The follow rest looks like this:
But I am not sure how to identify the correct one for my lathe. Could they be a universal fit for all South Bend Lathes or do I need a specific part number? Please advise. Thank you.
P.S. If you know of any of these that are for sale please reply. My experience is that they are not easy to find.
