Hello everyone,
I am new to turning and need help/info on what type of steady rest would work for bowls and end grain pieces. I would like to be able to use the same steady rest on both if possible. I am having trouble with a piece that is 14" long and 7" in diameter. The wood is green. I do not know if there is a single rest that will work for say a 20" bowl and still work on a 7" end grain piece. Any sugestions/experience will be of great help.
Thanks in advance
