An accidental begginers buy turned into a treasure trove of goodies....

  I made a purchase early on when I had first purchased my Wen 12 by 18 inch variable speed bench top lathe.  I didn't even bother to look at the size of the banjo tool rest holder dimensions which now knowing that was 1 inch in diameter.  How ever I made a a mistake buy as I said well a couple of them the harbor freight lathe being one of them.  I bought a set of 4 tool rests from Amazon.  Come to find out they work and fit on my Delta lathe perfectly.  So in the long run now I'm glad I bought them even though I had no idea 2 or three months ago that I was going to buy a delta.  So the tool rests just sat in their amazon delivery box until I looked at the banjo on the delta this morning and gave it a shot.  So score for me I don't have to buy any other tool rests for this lathe I now have plenty.  I can not for the life of me remember where on the store page I bought these from I just typed in tool rests I think these were about 45 bucks or so.

 Sign in on amazon & click the drop down arrow below your name and then click "orders". This should bring up previous purchases.

While browsing Amazon for HSS gouges to purchase I happen to come across the listing for the tool rests I paid 45 dollars roughly for this set of 4 its the 4 pc tool rest set.
