Shop Made Steady Rest

Thank you. The bearings I got from eBay, they were $1 a piece, I bought a sleeve of 10. Good thing too, because 2 of them exploded 5 minutes into boring. So you have to be quite careful with how much pressure you have on the fingers. Once I figured that out, it ran smoothly, and I even got a halfway decent finish. Most likely I will buy a couple more sleeves of bearings just to stock up

Being slow is not a bad thing for the HSM - beautiful workmanship like yours suggests that we ALL might want to work a little slower :)
