You're welcome. Hope it helps someone.
I just looked at that other thread, and realized that it took me 5 months to complete this project from start to finish. Wow.

That's a fine looking steady rest. I built one like it about a year ago. One thing I noticed with mine was that it is kinda noisy in use, does yours make a lot of noise while turning? It seems like the noise from mine comes from the wheels.
I saw urethane scooter wheels on the Lee Valley website yesterday for about $2 each, if you are looking to replace yours. Very nice build, by the way. Puts my plywood steady to shame.
