Hey Guys
Here is a few pics of the new steady Im building for the Sidney Lathe. The ring is 10 1/4 OD X 8inch ID. Should big enough for anything that wanders through the door. Im leaving the ring solid, I seldom need to open the top on my previous lathe, so solid it is, till I see it other wise.
The next step will be to mill the 3-slots in the ring, and make up the fingers for it. The fingers will be getting a set of bolt on wheels as well, that way I have a choice, with or with out.
Thanks for looking
Paul
