Harmony Tool Company

[Omer Klee]

Does anyone here have information on the Harmony Tool Company?
I was looking for a steady rest and came across their Facebook page. The most recent post is 2020.
Has anyone bought an iris steady rest from them?

I was curious so I did some searching and found this. I wouldn't get my hopes up for this ever being available after seeing how he is manufacturing them. It probably takes more than a week to machine all the parts for a single steady rest with that baby cnc machine. I would bet he finally realized he was spending $800 to make a $250 item and moved on.

Edit: My curiosity got the better of me and i looked a little deeper. He did move on and co founded Inversion Space in early 2021 in the garage he was using to build the iris, so it is no more.

Take a look at a Steve Sinner ; very well made.

I have Steve Sinner's Center Steady and I believe that there is not a better one made.

Greg, I became cautious after seeing there were no recent posts on the company facebook page. The price also seemed to good to be true
