When you want to turn a thin and long object, the wood may easily break; in these cases, it is very useful to support the piece with a steady rest.

The steady rest is also very useful for providing support for turning pots and bowls.
The steel arms can be adjusted in several positions and configurations; they can be adapted from Ø 5 mm up to 160 mm. The transparent silicone wheels, on double ball bearings, allow an excellent operation without 'marking' the wood.

The base plate is made of steel and is suitable for all models of lathes on the market.

The extruded aluminum column is rigid and the system offers good strength, especially in the direction of the turning effort.
