Mine is also metal and came with 2.
Personally I'd pass. Makes nice floors and decks.
On my powermatic the banjo doesn't move. I do all the maintnace to keep it functional. The problem is the way the tool rest clamps in.
Jeff thanks for commenting. Someday I'll own a Robust lathe. I'm sure it is of the highest quality.
Fred I have had my powermatic for over 5 years. I absolutely hate the way the tool rest tightens into the banjo. I get a lot of movement when working on larger turnings. Would love a robust ab. Since...
Thanks joe for the reply. What exactly did you not like about the Robust banjo? Also how are the robust rest in combination with the oneway banjo?

Hello creekers.
I lucked out today and bought 3 older glaser tools from an eBay auction. A spindle gouge a bowl gouge and a skew. They look to have been used very little. The kicker, I only payed...
Congratulations. Looks like a great old pice of iron.
Be be safe and enjoy.
If it's fruit wood, it's ok that it's a little green. Curly's will dry out fast so I would use them.
I have a ceramic smoker. I use small chunks of wood for smoking in it.
Enjoy.
Wood workers Emporium has the 3520a banjo on clearance for $90.00. This might be an economical compromise. It doesn't have the offset tool post like the 3520b but for a fraction of the cost does it...
