    Lathe tools

    Sorry but this is mostly a gloat. An X employer called me today and ask me for a favor, just hanging around in the shop so said sure. He says come out to the house, so I did. We went to a shed he has and he said to start loading. I couldn't belive what he was getting rid of! I ask him how much and he said a week of work back at his shop so he can go hunting. I was the G.M. for a few years and he just wants me to fill in for him. Made the deal on the spot! I don't have a lathe so as I come on to more lathe stuff I'll post them as well.

    P.S. Sorry about the mess in the shop!
    Cork,

    The curved metal piece is a tool rest for your lathe, to turn curves. Very handy.

      Holy frijoles, Batman, you hit the mother lode. What's the post diameter on the curved tool rest?
