Hollowing out deep bowls on my lathe was always difficult because the tailstock was always in the way where I really needed the tool rest to be.
So I bought 4 skateboard wheels, welded up a frame that attaches to the lathe base, and sliders to adjust the wheels up to the stock to hold it.
It works. But now I think I need some sort of offset tool rest that can be inside the bowl such that I don't have as much tool over the rest. Is there such?
