What is the largest diameter bowl with this lathe handle?

Hello, I have provided a link where you can find all the specs on the Rikon 10 Inch x 18 Inch Mini Lathe. Have a great day! https://buymbs.com/p-7542-rikon-10-inch-x-18-inch-mini-lathe.aspx?vid=1089439

can a veriabule speed drive add to this lathe

This machine has multiple pulley on a belt like many drill presses. To change the speed simply loosen the belt and change it to a different pulley. The speeds go (500, 1,175, 1,850, 2,225, 3,200)

Does Rikon or another manufacturer make a steady rest for this lathe?

The lathe comes a rest attached to the base. Only about 6 inches wide but is perfect for pens and other small turning. Woodcraft carries additional rest for this model also. The one included is completely adjustable.

I purchased this for ring turning. What Chuck would be suggested to purchase?

I'm not absolutely sure but a tapered live feed, if available, might work. Sounds like you may need to make one out of hardwood or really strong plastic. They sell a drive that has a screw thread on one end.
