Have steady rest but keeping that with lathe, not sure about the micro adjustable. Would not be willing to part with mine except I have a larger (11 inch) lathe. Yours looks nice after restoration.

Thanks Len.
Like anything mechanical, I don't consider a thorough cleaning & a good paint job a "restoration". unless all the parts that are worn have been re:machined...it just a clean & paint job.
