This modular tool rest system enables the turner to build up a collection of tool rests without going to great expense. Six different rests are available: 4″, 6″ and 9″ as well as a 9″ curved internal and external and a box platform which can be used in conjunction with just one stem.
Cross bars are specially hardened to avoid those troublesome nicks and to give a smooth finish.
Stems are available in ½”, ?”, ¾”, ?”, 1″, 25mm, 28mm and 30mm diameters to fit most popular lathes. The same stems are compatible with the Precision Boring System.
These crossbars are specially hardened to avoid those irritating little nicks, so that your tool moves along smoothly. Available in 4″, 6″ and 9″ lengths.

The Sorby modular tool rest is a really useful addition to my lathe. This particular part makes turning small projects such as pens much easier.
