I've never seen a round tool rest for metal spinning before. I have seen them use the 2 hands on a leverage bar that was connected straight to the main bar but this method allows you to use 2 hands with ever cutter. Interesting.

The tool rest is very cool. And the tool that ooks like a wheel could really cut down on surface defects. Very interesting video.

That is a variation of a scissors rest.

Hell of a way to check for burrs!

Dick Coers

Great system, skilled craftsman. But, checking that trimmed edge for any burrs left, by feeling for it with it spinning, is just plain asking for a bad cut!
