Want to add a second banjo to my Jet1642 for doing large tall hollow forms. I like what I read about the Oneway banjo so hoping someone has one, or something that will work, that will fit my lathe.

Banjo to fit Jet1642

Hey Randy, just a thought, but are your present tool rest posts the right length for a Oneway?
Is there a max/min length they require? The Jet banjo has the locking arm under the tool rest post hole so I've had to cut other tool rests to the right length to be able to fit. I don't see anything in the specs about tool rest post length.
I don't know, but I'm sure you could ask Oneway.

The ONEWAY 1640 Banjo is 5 1/2" tall. The tool rest post depth is 1 1/8" above the lathe bed. The tool post lock is about 1/2" wide and the top is 1 1/8" below the top surface of the casting.
