Still on the subject of mystery items, can anyone idently this travelling staedy? In old money it’s 8 ins high and 5.5 ins across, with the dovetail being 3.5 ins across. There are more photos in ‘photos’

Thanks in advance for any answers!

Don’t know what it is, but it’s given me ideas for a fixed steady for my lathe.

Many thanks,

I’ve got one too and wondered what it was off. At Sandown Park Home & Workshop also had one. Apparently it is for a Harrison L5. Can’t confirm it on Tony’s lathes site though.

Thanks – I’m glad it wasn’t just me that couldn’t identify it!
