Hi

I purchased a 12" harrison last year which came with various odds and sods including a steady which I carefully cleaned and repainted. I thought before putting it away I would check it fitted the lathe, but alas no it doesn't. The hole dimensions are in the attached photo, and the spacing on the lathe appears to be 4 1/8" rather than the 4 1/2" of the steady. Any ideas which model this would fit or anyone need to swap??
