Hello all. I'm considering a bed extension for my Rikon 70-220VSR. Any advice on what I should get for a steady rest for long spindles? Is the bed gap all I need to look for to make sure a steady rest will secure to the bed? Getting the diameter is straightforward, mine is a 12" diameter. Thanks all.
