Steady rest for the AI Hembrug lathe

To ensure optimal performance of early AI Hembrug lathes such as the DR1, proper rest is essential. AI Hembrug, previously known as "Artillerie Inrichtingen," was a Dutch government ordnance works that aimed for self-sufficiency from external suppliers. Later, it evolved into the AI Hembrug Company, renowned for creating both functional and visually appealing machinery. Currently, while disassembling my DR1-L for repainting, I decided to model its steady rest for better functionality.
