🔍 Key Concepts

• Lathe steady rest function and where it is mounted on the bed • Difference between supporting work between centers vs. using a chuck or faceplate • When extra support is needed for long, slender work pieces during machining

💭 Think About

• Think about which type of work piece is most likely to deflect, vibrate, or bend if not supported along its length • Which operation(s) in the choices would cause the greatest side pressure or cutting force on the far end of the work piece? • Ask yourself: when would you need support away from the headstock rather than just gripping in a chuck?

✅ Before You Answer

• Remember that the steady rest supports the work on the bed, at some distance from the chuck, not right at the headstock • Check which option clearly involves a long work piece needing support during cutting or drilling operations • Eliminate any choices that mainly describe work held fully by the chuck or between centers without need for mid‑span support
