Review Image by Milwaukie guy Milwaukie guy
Very clever, on 3rd use 1 lock-lever interfered with my tool rest; I discovered 3 levers are held geared to bolt by a spring and Allen screw on the top. If you loosen the screw you can lift lever against its spring and rotate it then reengage gear teeth. Correction, next day I discovered you do NOT have to loosen the top screw of the lever, nor the lever itself from clamping your work... just pull outward on lever and it's free to rotate to a different geared position on its bolt. Very smart & useful. I also found I can remove the lever, bolt & all and change the approach path of its contact wheel on the project to allow my tool rest to cross through the Steady-rest axis inside the main/outer rim, securing it with only the 2nd locking bolt & knob that each wheel strut has. This thing is quite versatile. Hefty steel, six bolts all have washers to lock position better, and have lever and knob so no tools needed for ongoing adjustments during work. I was able to make a mounting yoke out of 2x4 to bolt it to Shopsmith Mark V's slide-tubes and buy one long through-bolt & wing-nut at hardware store. You can see a bit of the yoke's wood in photo around the steel tube. ... show more

    • No more wobble!
Size: full size
This is not a tool that I use that often. As such I really didn't want to spend a lot on it, so I took a chance on this unit and I am impressed. If you are having problems hollowing taller items, or getting wobble on longer spindle work, this steady rest is what you need. Well built with thicker steel than some of the other affordable models. I also like the design on this one. You will lose a bit in terms of max diameter, but I feel like the hoop design makes for a much sturdier hold. Takes a few minutes to square it and get all the wheels in place, but I've found it to be pretty forgiving and fairly easy to set up once you get a feel for it. ... show more

    • Set up takes a little time
Size: full size
situational set up can take a few trials to be accurate due to multiple tightening points. Once set up for turning it worked very well. No friction burning or marks. Good value.

Sturdy, well made, performed as expected. Used for supporting bed spindles and post while turning and boring mortise holes.

    • Just the tool I needed
Size: full size
This is a steady rest used on a wood lathe when turning items that wobble when turning. These are usually long thin items. I was going to make one, but when I saw this I immediately purchased it. It was delivered the next day, was easy to figure out and install. It performed flawlessly and allowed me to finish the piece I was working on. The cost and quality of both design and construction exceeded my expectations, and I would and have recommended it to other turners. ... show more

    • Surprisingly solid for an inexpensive steady rest
Size: full size
I've used this for a couple of turning projects now, a 32" broom handle and a longer (20+") tool handle. Steady rests provide additional support in the middle of longer workpieces to reduce or eliminate the inherent problems from longer material flexing during turning. Like another reviewer, I made a simple riser block (stacked & glued two pieces of 1" plywood) to adapt it to my 16" swing lathe. This also required a longer screw handle, and the Kipp M10 90mm adjustable handle (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013IYRX5E?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) has worked well for this. There's no undue flex in this steady rest, and everything about it feels well made and has worked as expected. No problems with the wheel bearings, which did include the proper spacers to prevent problems from over-tightening the axle bolts. ... show more

    • Upgrade the wheels

The media could not be loaded. The overall structure of this stabilizer is of good quality however the wheels are horrible . Upgrade the wheels to a set that comes with a bearing spacer and it a night and day difference . The wheels it comes with have no spacer between bearings so when you tighten them you get a lot of resistance . Instead of trying to find a spacer that will work just buy a set of new wheels and then this thing works great! ... show more
