The color matches some of the older Clausing lathes.

What is the size of the thingy?

Someone on PM suggested that this is for a Pratt and Whitney lathe.

Look on the floor under the lathe.

Notice that one is a hollow base?

A follower rest is a follower rest. Only the mounting and the size makes
a determination. Notice where the mounting bolt holes are? On the right
side of the unit.

Again I ask what is the dimensions of the critter.
