steady rest for the Shopsmith

I finally need a steady rest to turn a large vase. I saw this hanging on the back wall in some YT video and liked the design. Turned out great. Actually the picture is wrong. I used the tail stock just to set up this picture. Actually turned the vase without the tail stock.
Looks like I posted this in the wrong forum and not sure how to move it.

Great build! Welding is something I'd like to learn, it looks like this steady rest is really handy.
