Commercial tool rests are ####. Even if you don't have a welder or metal
cut off saw it is easy to make your own. Actually cheaper to buy a cutoff
saw and steel and make your own than buy the commercial ####. Any muffler
shop can do the welding.

You'll excuse we fans of cast iron old style if we disagree, of course.
