Big Thicket Express · large-envelope heavy-duty CNC lathe with steady rest

This is the heaviest machine on the floor. When a customer sends a 20-inch forged blank and wants it turned to a finished OD with concentric internal features across ten feet of length, Big Thicket Express is the answer. The included steady rest is what makes long slender work possible — without it, deflection eats your tolerance.
