Acceptability testing and development of a novel wood lathe balanced rest

The utility model discussed in this study discloses a wood lathe balancing rest that is advantageous in terms of design, ergonomics, and functions. The study aimed to fabricate a safety device for the wood lathe machine to prevent kickback and slow down vibration from the workpiece attached to the lathe machine to avoid the vibration of the workpiece and to avoid an accident to the operator and to avoid damage of the materials. The utility model is planned not exclusively to spare time yet also for the wellbeing of the laborers amid activity. It is designed to hold the workpiece when turning and control the vibration, it can be mounted on the bed of the lathe near the center of the turning planetary.
