I have a big roll of copper sheet and want to give metal spinning a try. I see some tools on eBay I can get, but having a hard time finding a tool rest.

This is one of those things that would be good to have in a local club as part of a tool library that people can try new tools and techniques before investing fully. I have tried to encourage this practice in our local club with small success. I got to try the Oneway coring system that way while I had a McNaughton.
 
Here are the tools i have. Parting tool and a combination spinning tool. It needs polishing before using
In the box is a dolly, 10 or so aluminum disks two tail stock pieces for clamping
I have a Oneway spinning rest and dvd’s I’ll get photos tomorrow

Yes the tool post is 1”dia

How about $250 incl shipping?
BTW Terry Tynan is the fellow that made the tools worked with Oneway to design the rest and teach me how. If you haven’t taken any lessons google Terry if ur lucky he’s still teaching. BTW copper work hardens and needs to be tempered. Temper opposite of what u do for steel. Terry can show u
 
I am good with $250.

I have been in contact with James Thurman, he has been doing videos and teaches in Texas. Apparently Terry has moved back to the UK.

This should be a fun, new adventure.
