>You are correct. Note that the current craft supply catalog has deleted the woodfast. Apparently the company is still in business as a custom casting shop but they decided that lathes weren't generating enough money. Too bad!

>I see that the Belgian lathe maker Wivamac has the Woodfast tailstock and toolrest and banjo on their DB801 model and the tailstock on the DB100 model. I guess Wivamac buys these parts from Woodfast and puts them into their lathe?

Check the website below, I hope I got the connection right this time.
