Re: Max workpiece diameter for fixed steady?

 

Engineman has a nice steadyrest that looks like it could be built to
handle quite large diameters, see(near the bottom of the page):

What's the maximum diameter of material I could fit in a fixed steady?
I need to true the ends of a piece of 2.125" tube but it's way to
long to just run in the chuck without any additional support. I'll
have to mail order a steady but I can't get any scale from the on-line
pictures of the device. Are there any other ways of doing this if I
can't just use a fixed steady?
