I know probably a snipe hunt, but thought I would put it out there that I'm looking for them now with hopes of finding them sometime in the next few years. lol My 14C (16.5" actual swing) came with what I think is an original (earlier) LeBlond steady rest and no follow. I'm not willing to butcher the LeBlond to make it fit and would be happy to trade it if, bizarrely, you happen to need one and have a Monarch steady.
Looking for an original Monarch steady (they came in center sizes 4" to 7" and am fine with any) that hasn't been hacked up. Follow rest I assume will be harder to find, but have plans to remake some Acme lead screws at some point so it will be nice to have. Have attached a picture of one in case you have an orphan that you are unsure of background on...
Thank you for looking!
