[QUOTE="kinverkid, post: 1547610, member: 27677"] When I swivel the headstock of my lathe to turn larger bowls, I can't get the tool rest as close as I would like mainly because the design of the banjo makes it awkward. It's not a great problem and I've been turning on this lathe for many years. But, four years ago I bought a cheap stick Aldi welder to make a 72"x2" belt grinder so I thought it's about time I made a new rest with more over-hang than my Record rest. It's made from angle iron bolted and welded to the stem which is a piece of cold chisel. Then I welded a piece of round steel bar to the angle iron. Does anyone know the shade of green that Record uses? The one I've sprayed this with is Racing Green apparently. Gary[ATTACH type="full"]127664[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]127665[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
