Default WANTED: Micrometer Follow Rest for South Bend Heavy 10" Lathe


Grant:

Would it be possible for you to post a picture of the "micrometer
follower rest" in the dropbox? I have never heard a follower rest
using that description but perhaps the style I am familiar with is
just being called by a different name.

I looked and looked for one of these for my SB 9" but never found one. Then
I called South Bend and was astonished to have them quote me a very reasonable
price, something like $120, far cheaper than they were going for on ebay. So
I bought one new. Since then South Bend has gone under but someone has picked
up parts support. I don't know how to reach them but someone on this NG will.
You might try asking the new price, it might be the best way to go still. - GWE
