Hello all,
As the title suggests I'm looking for a work rest that is highly adjustable for both height and angle while at the same time being rock solid. I currently have a DD extreme tilt work rest and while I love the versatility it offers, there is simply too much flex in it. Nothing against Don, he makes a very nice product and his craftsmanship is top notch. But, for my own personal needs a more rigid rest is required.
I'm currently looking at the R.A.T. Arm from Northridge and while it is pricey it does appear to be quite robust. I have considered making my own but lack the tooling to build a rest that can drop below the centerline of all my contact wheels AND be able to tilt at the same time. If any of you folks could offer some help on the matter that would be greatly appreciated!
Blessings,
Joshua
