Modular Tool Rest System

This modular tool rest system enables the turner to build up a collection of tool rests without going to great expense. Six different rests are available: 4″, 6″ and 9″ as well as a 9″ curved internal and external and a box platform which can be used in conjunction with just one stem.

Cross bars are specially hardened to avoid those troublesome nicks and to give a smooth finish.

Stems are available in ½”, ⅝”, ¾”, ⅞”, 1″, 25mm, 28mm and 30mm diameters to fit most popular lathes. The same stems are compatible with the Precision Boring System.
