Jet free standing Tool rest support
« on: July 02, 2019, 10:27:37 PM »



Jet heavy duty free standing tool rest support of cast iron construction is great for use with lathes with an outboard turning facility such as the Jet 4224. This also includes lathes where the headstock can be slid along the bed to the tailstock end allowing very large diameter projects to be undertaken.

It'd be useful but sadly I have a lot less space than you otherwise I'd be tempted.

No arguments from me well worth that price.

Just an off the cuff thought, have you tried the Max Carey Trust? http://maxcareywoodturningtrust.org.uk/ I would like it for those once in a blue moon projects, but don't have room for it, but they may have space and being a facility used by many it may spend a bit more time in use and less time being in the way.

Excellent. I am interested in this. Presumably it is in good condition? Where are you based - given the present lockdown I could try to arrange a courier?

Thanks. I thought so - it is essentially just a big lump of cast iron after all! I have requested some courier quotes and will come back to you tomorrow If that is ok?
