12 CK steady rest photos

Ultradog MN · Apr 2, 2021

Am looking for an original steady rest for a 12CK but don't know what one looks like.
Does anyone have one and could post a couple of good photos of it.
Would help to ID it if I came across one.
Thanks

If you don't find a used replacement, might use this for some inspiration:

J King's Shopmade Sjogren

And here:

Most of the Monarch steady rests look the same. The key is the base and center height measurements.

Ohio Mike's steady is the same as mine. If you plan on making or acquiring one, mike's and mine are too small for anything over about 2" dia.

Thank you.
Like any other steady I guess though the 3 bolts for clamping the adjusters are distinctive. Yeah, I will likely need to adapt one from another machine.
The one made by J King us pretty impressive.

Looks like you got what you need but I had taken these yesterday so I'll go ahead and post them. Sorry about the random orientation.
