A support structure for laterally supporting a workpiece in a vertical lathe so as to hold the axis of the workpiece aligned with the vertical support axis of the lathe. The support structure includes a rod which is vertically supported on the lathe. The rod supports a movable locator rest assembly. The locator rest assembly includes a horizontally extending rod which terminates in a part rest which can be positioned so as to engage and support the workpiece in a precisely vertical manner.
