- In this video, I show you how I made a steady rest for my South Bend 13 lathe, using whatever materials I had to hand.
During this time I also made a lantern style tool post, shown in one of my previous videos, before I came down with Covid, I'm feeling a bit better now, Please bear with me on this build I haven't managed to explain myself very well for which I apologise.
I hope you enjoy watching the video along with a few of my brain farts.
Cheers
Looking good so far.
Steve.
Not sure I completly understand your plan on the whiteboard, but that's not a problem. I'm sure I will get it in your next video :)
Hi Michel, not my best work, I'm afraid I've been poorly with covid, I had to do something or I would have gone mad. All should be clear on the next video, I hope,... cheers
Very nice video sir. Quality work and kept it interesting.
Hi, thanks, cheers
Always love your witt Paul
Thanks for sharing this new build
Cheers
Hi, you're welcome, glad you enjoyed.
I'm with Michel. I didn't quite get the plan either... So I am looking forward to seeing the next installment.
I'll try to do better next time, I blame covid... I'll try and do better.
@@Thesheddweller your whiteboard had great drawings of the individual parts , but not how they all go together... makes for a bit of suspense in the video series. :) No harm done!
thanks

Very interesting. I too have constructed a Steady Rest for a South Bend 13. I took a different approach, making the outer ring from two pieces of plate steel. It turned out well and I get a lot of positive interest on Instagram. Looking forward to part 2. Thanks
Hi, glad you enjoyed. cheers
Very nice work. I need one as well. Will have to make one soon
Great Content Paul!! "Many Thanks"
I think I get it.
You're a cleverer man than me by getting metric and BSF threads to work together, impressive knowledge!
Hi, the pitch similarity doesn't really matter, I chose similar pitches because it looks better on video. I hope part two is clearer. cheers
Hello Paul,
I liked your video on the auto retracting threading attachment so much that I watched it about six times. Today, a TH-cam channel called ‘swap lamp’ posted a video showing an alternative solution. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this approach. Best regards. Mike
Hi Mike, I visited the TH-cam channel and I can’t find the video you mentioned. I saw one video where he used a jet stop lathe, but I can’t find the video showing a version of the retracting thread cutter. Regards
Hey ...
