LF steady rest for lathe

[chevystroker]

Looking for a steady rest for an old Southbend Lathe.

Ways are 8 1/2 inches apart and approx 6 inches up to centre of chuck.

If it is not exactly the right size, I might be able to modify it.

There must be some machinists on here with old gear around.

Thanks.

I'm going to go walk around and ask 5 guys right now. lol My shift team-mates all have gear at home.

My neighbor might have one on an old machine he drug home that's in very poor condition. I can check out the size, and he would prob be cool with you borrowing it, if you cleaned it up.
If you just need it for a special job. Prob not for sale.
