The lathe accessory used to give extra support to long and slender job:
Answer: C
The accessory that supports a long, slender job is the steady rest.
A long thin job held between centres or in a chuck sags and springs away from the tool. A steady rest, clamped to the bed, carries three adjustable jaws that bear on the job part-way along its length and stop it deflecting, so it can be turned, drilled or bored at the end.
A dead centre supports the job only at its end, in the tailstock. A lathe dog and a lathe carrier are the same device: a clamp that transmits the drive from the driving plate to the job; neither gives any support.
