I have been looking for some time. Every once in a while the wrong one will pop up on Ebay for over $500.
This one has the right dimensions and the price was fair.
It was ordered on Feb. 27th from New Zealand. I got it today.
I paid $55 postage.
I have this idea of being able to cut acme threads or what ever I want. Now I can.
I'll use it.....maybe.
I placed it in the parts washer at work. It won't take much to wire brush it and put some paint on it.
I have more fingers for it, they came with the lathe although these are fine.
Happy day.

But, it is not a steady rest, it is a follow rest. Congrats for finding it!
