Adjustable Tool Rest
More positions. More flexibility. More ways to support your turning.
Our revised Adjustable Tool Rest builds on the original design with a thicker 5/16" platform and multiple adjustable positions, giving you the flexibility to position the rest where you need it for different project sizes and turning operations.
Originally designed to provide solid tool support during hollowing, this rest is now useful throughout the entire turning process. The platform can be adjusted from hole to hole, allowing you to move the rounded end of the rest closer to your project, and position the post under your tool for better tool support.
The center post position provides support for outside roughing, while the multiple mounting positions make it easy to adapt the rest to different shapes and sizes.
The post features wrench flats for additional leverage, along with a high-strength cap screw for secure clamping. A clamping collar is also included to help maintain the rest's height when making adjustments to the banjo.
Choose from multiple post sizes, including a new longer post designed for larger lathes such as the Harvey T-60 Turbo and Grizzly G0766.
