Yes I made them,they are 7/8" wide,1/2" thick about 2.677" long.
The centre slot is a bit over 1 1/2" ans the slot end 1/2" from one end and 9/16" from the other.

Thanks Ill measure up the Myford ones on the week end and see if yours fit .
This is something I've been thinking of doing for some time .Not that I use the steadies much ,but it got to be better than the plain bronze ones .

Myself I prefer to use the bearing type over the bronze or cast ones,no need to worry about heat build up or sever scoreing.
You still get a little marking of the work piece from the rollers due to there small contact area but nothing that is detremental.
Depending on the Myford sizeing these could either be remachined slightly,or others made to suit.
