I know this s minor, but what size post (diameter) does the Delta 46-460 have? I've been reading up on that lathe for a second lathe and can't find it mentioned. I have some custom tool rests I'm hoping the posts would fit it. They are 1" dia. Looks like the Delta has a smaller post.

Thanks

Steve is right. The post is 5/8". I gave a couple of mine to a friend who bought the Delta lathe.
