I have an older Rockwell/Delta lathe and I am looking for a different tool rest base. I have to adjust my current base with a 3/4" wrench. I'm looking for one that can be adjusted with a handle on the end like the one in the attached pic. Can anyone direct me to one cheaper that the $50.00 one on Amazon?
Thanks,
Greg

Somebody else might know but the ones I have seen are $70 and up in the woodworking catalogs.

If you can get it for $50, grab it. That's the best deal I've heard so far. Just paid $72 for mine and thought I got a good deal:(

Bob,
Never noticed that down there before, I'll send him a pm to see if he still has it.
Thanks for the heads up.

Someone want to draw me a picture..I am confused. Feel like you guys are speaking in code.


I am also looking for the same tool rest for the same reason.
