I need to make a steady rest for hollow forms, vases, etc. I recall seeing a post by Steve Schlumpf a few years ago in which he showed a steady rest with only two wheels at about 4 and 8 o'clock position. A few years before that he had built a 4 wheel rest. but seemed to imply that, at least at that time (2012), that he thought only two were sufficient. All of the other posts I searched involve three or four wheels. I"m curious to hear if Steve's still favors the two wheel rest, or if anyone else has gone this route. Here is the post that shows the two wheeler. I've done a search, and have found no further references to similar rests. Maple Rough Out. Thanks for your input.
