8 forum posts 4 photos	Hi Can anyone cast light on what these supports might be from? I acquired them along with a lathe purchased last year, no use for them and want to know if they are of use to anyone. The body is aluminium, each one has a sight glass for an oil reserve and a bronze sleeve bearing, they obviously tighten on to a vee way I assume on an overarm support but I could of course be totally wrong.... Approx 250 wide and 250 high - just guessing here not got them to hand nor have I actually measured them. Thanks Pete
