GOOD 1..........I have the same one, the only thing that P**** me off is the fact that the tool bar or rest is to small/ not long enough, it's only 5" long. you'll be finding that you'll be spending alot of time moving it back an forth. but I'm working on that & will let you know what I come up with. ...oh . they don't make a longer 1 for those , so don't go looking for 1.already did that.

that delta is so smooth, you won't even know its on......good luck !..........steve

I got a book on lathes, they used a long piece of hardwood, and a steel pin to make a longer rest. I plan on getting the vega mini duplicator from penn state industries in a couple of weeks.

BM you get my email?

Lathe and duplicator, souns like Bill is going BIG TIME.

Hope you enjoy it, I find wood turning very relaxing when I get a chance to do it.

I was looking in a Penn State Industries magazine and they sell 8" and 12" toolrests for Carba tec and Jet lathes, the carba tec has a 1/2" post and the Jet has a 5/8" post. They are $16 and $18 :-}
