Tool post riser

There are times when I don't need the compound on my lathe.
1. It seems to be a bit more rigid without it.
2. It can extend the distance between the tool bit and the work.
3. Makes a nice way to mount a tool post grinder for straight grinding.

Two are shown. One has two mounting holes for the tool post.
They can be positioned as needed.

Cheers, JR
