Designed and tested in conjunction with REK LLC. After trying all kinds of different ideas, we have finally built what we think is the ultimate work rest. This is a standalone, modular design that can be added to any grinder that accepts at least two 1.5-inch square tool arms. Extremely user friendly and capable of being set up left or right-handed. Used in either vertical or horizontal grinding configurations, this work rest can complete any grinding task. It is ready for wet grinding as everything but the table top is made from stainless steel or aluminum. Different table tops can be swapped out by either removing two bolts or, if optioned with the electromagnet set up, a push of a button. Many of the design aspects of this work rest can be credited to Josh at REK LLC. He was instrumental in the design, testing and development of this work rest!

Features include:

- Standard four directional .375x4x6 laser cut and machine beveled steel table top with locating dowels.

- Optional .375x6x24 laser cut table meant for jig grinding.

- Fully Machined precision 1.5-inch square aluminum tool arm 15.75 inches long.

- Four pivoting joints made from .75-inch round Stainless-Steel bar.

- 1x1.5x5 inch heavy duty 316 Stainless Steel articulating arms with Replaceable bronze bushing for long life.

- Optional Electromagnet with full wiring and push button switch. Just plug it in and start changing attachments in seconds.

- Features 3 linear and 4 rotary axes for an unbelievable number of potential positions available.

- Fits any grinder with at least two 1.5-inch tool arm slots.
