Compound rest for Delta Midi Lathe

Post by kvonk »

Is there a compound rest that can be retrofitted to my Delta Midi Lathe? I've checked this forum extensively for the answer and eBay for a rest that would suffice but am not approaching enlightenment.

Also: This site is like Pipe Making College with free tuition and I like it here! I've been making pipes for one week. One pipe, thus far, almost finished.

Thanks!

There isn't a modern production unit that I am aware of. There are some antiques out there, but they are rare and getting moreso.
