Hi,

Just a few details on the right angle tool rest. Its to fit a MC1100 or 900

The right hand side arm shown with the angle cut is approx 170mm long any longer and it will interfere with the center. left hand arm is 190mm but it can be whatever you choose. Overall height is 150mm this matches existing tool rest height The radius is approx 65mmm or what turned came from hand bending in the vice. It works for me at this radius.
Welded together with or with out a notch at the top of the bar,its up to you I don't think its that important.
