I'm looking for a 9 or 10 inch tool rest with a 5/8" post to use with my Nova Comet ll lathe.

Thanks, Mark

Mark, take a look at Ricks site here.

He does good work. He should be able to make one for you.

Thanks

Chuck, Thanks for the quick reply. I actually have 2 of Rick's tool rests (both 3") and a couple other of his tools. He builds a real quality product at a very fair price. This tool rest is something I'll probably only use once, so I was hoping to save a bit of money and maybe get one cheap.

No problem Mark. It was all I had at the time.

Hey Mark, I have two of Rick's tool rests, too. You can get just the rest, any length, for $10 and screw your existing post into it.

I got a 12" tool rest on Ebay for $18 not long ago. You could always cut it down.

The people selling it were a pleasure to deal with.

great site

I had been away from this site for a few months, and I had forgotten just how wonderful the people here are. I'm going to order one from Rick to go with the post I already have. Thanks again everyone.
