Scraper Tool Rest Platform with Post and Clamping Collar for Woodturning Lathe

This rectangle tool rest was originally designed with the Simple Scraper IV to reduce tool overhang & vibrations and improve cutting while deep hollowing boxes, bowls or other vessels. However, we discovered that this is quite beneficial to use with our other square shaft tools as it helps keep the tool flat and the cutter at the lathe center line and greatly reduces "teeter tottering" that can be common from a standard tool rest. We also like to use this with the Simple Parting Tool as the tool body can be on the flat tool rest, which greatly helps keep the tool steady and the tip at the center line.  Reduce tool & cutter overhang while hollowing to reduce vibrations Helps eliminate mistakes by keeping tools flat and cutters at the lathe center line Clamping collar keeps height position while rotating in banjo Available in 1" or 5/8" diameter steel post to fit most all banjos CNC machined from stainless steel in our shop in Ramsey, Minnesota Ships with 3/16 Allen key to adj
