Richard Pender All Messages By This Member #107696 -- Hello, I am UK based and am restoring a 1937 South Bend "modelR" bench lathe (none operational at the moment) .? I understand that the 9" swing model R is now rare, but I wonder if the more common "Workshop 9"" lathe may use a steady that would fit straight onto my machine.? Kind regards Richard Pender
