My lathe that is up against a wall has a pile of swarf behind it. If your VFD was at the tailstock end it might stay cleaner….

To the group:
?
For someone that needs a good variable speed, reversable setup, I am offering a Baldor IDXM7006 inverter duty ? HP motor and TECO Westinghouse L510-101-H1-U Variable Frequency Drive for sale.? See attached pictures.
?
The motor is ?230/460V 3 phase, frame 56C, “explosion proof”, ball bearing, 1735RPM at 60Hz, made in USA and is used but excellent shape.? There are minor scratches and scuffs on the paint, no dings or dents.? This was used to run a small
pump in a lab.
?
The inverter is 110v input, ? HP, again in excellent condition – I would say it looks new.? I do not have the manual, but it is available online from numerous sources on the web.
?
I purchased both of these for my employer, so I know their history of very light use.? When they no longer were needed, I was able to save them from the junk pile.? I was planning to use the combo in my shop but they have sat for a couple
of years, and I need to reclaim some space.? I am offering the combo to this group first for a price of $250.? I am located in central NJ and would prefer to not have to ship, as the motor weighs 39 lbs, but will ship via UPS if you are willing to pay the
actual cost which I think could be around $100 depending on distance.? I’ll give first priority to local pickup, but if I get no takers on that in a few days, I will sell to the first person who is willing to pay the shipping.

Thanks for looking and very best

That number doesn't ring any bells for me. I enlisted a
couple years before the war in Vietnam ended, and after the
POWs from the Hanoi Hilton were returned. I crewed an F-111D
fighter for BGen. Robinson Reisner at Cannon AFB, NM., once
as a very junior member of the team that launched him one
fine day. Mid 1974? Crippled myself a bit that fall &
winter and retrained to be a still photographer in the
middle of 1975. Tech school at Lowry AFB, CO., then Eglin AFB still a
pretty junior airman for a couple of years where I met MGen.
Michael Collins, and worked with Col. George E. (Bud) Day,
also for a short time. I was there for a couple more years.
Made Senior Airman, instead of Sergeant as a member of the
2nd group to not make Sgt when the rank of SrA was
introduced. In May 78 I moved to Nellis AFB, NV, and in June
photographed my 2nd aircraft accident. By August I was
teaching my coworkers how to do crash & accident photos.
I probably met Capt. Sullenberger while I was there, as I
was one of the photographers for the Red Flag accident
investigation he mentioned in his book. Captain Mark Postai
was married to one of my former coworkers there when he
died. She'd been one of my trainers there as a young SrA.,
then got out, became a RN, and married Mark. I spent 5 years
there. A couple years in Turkey, 1983-85. Worked in the
hanger Francis Gary Powers had flown out of when he was shot
down over The USSR in 1960. Ran the base photo lab, as I'd
been promoted to TSgt shortly after I arrived. And got
chained to a desk. When my 2 years there were up I moved to Eglin AFB again,
once again in a new career field, SATCOM, after schools at
Keesler AFB, MS, and Ft. Gordon, GA. Only got to stay 6
months, due to my unit closing. They'd sent the terminal I
was supposed to work on to Thule AS, Greenland. Offered to
let me go there, remote for a year. Turkey was considered a
remote tour, too. So I turned it down. Wound up back in
Turkey again, this time at Pirinclic AB,? near Diyarbakir,
Turkey, for a year. Left there in the fall of 87, for
Sumter, SC, and Shaw AFB. There for four years. Counting
being deployed to Riyadh Saudi Arabia for Desert
Shield/Desert Storm. From Shaw to Germany, very late in
1991, to Wiesbaden, and Lindsey AS, in an 19th Century
Cavalry base. And 3? other bases before I left Germany in
early 1996, to Tinker AFB, OK, and the OKC metro... Been
here 28 years now. Longer than I was in the Air Force...

Re: South Bend 10 K Headstock Cover
Hi There,
Is your lathe one of the later Korean made SBL's?? I think
SBL was using them starting in 1979 or 1980.? The easiest
way to tell is to look at the side of the bed at the tail stock
end.? If the name "SOUTH BEND" is cast into the bed, it is
a US made one.? If blank, Korean.
The Korean made ones are still nice machines.? They mostly
came with Flame Hardened beds.? These were redesigned
so the headstock could be used for both horizontal drive
or cabinet (under drive).? I had one about 30 years ago.?
The only bad thing about them (if it can be said) was they
would use castings that had minor flaws.? They would weld
up the defect and machine the piece out.? SBL made lathes
would not use any castings that had flaws.? They would scrap
the casting.
The only thing that wasn't right with the one I had was the well
for the wick under the rear bearing would loose oil in a few hours.?
This turned out to be that when those wells were drilled in the
casting, they went a tiny bit too deep and just nicked the hole
bored for the reversing tumbler.? Once I located the problem,
I disassembled the head stock, flushed out the well with BRAKCLEAN?
and then put one drop of JB Weld? in there to seal the nick.? Then
reassembled it and all was good to go.
So, let us know which type you have or better yet, post some pics
and we'll be sure to help.
Good Luck!

TLDR and STILL way OT was Re: Way OT ... Re: [SouthBendLathe] 10K head stock cover
That number doesn't ring any bells for me. I enlisted a couple years before the war in Vietnam ended, and after the POWs from the Hanoi Hilton were returned. I crewed an F-111D fighter for BGen. Robinson Reisner at Cannon AFB, NM., once as a very junior member of the team that launched him one fine day. Mid 1974? Crippled myself a bit that fall & winter and retrained to be a still photographer in the middle of 1975. Tech school at Lowry AFB, CO., then Eglin AFB still a pretty junior airman for a couple of years where I met MGen. Michael Collins, and worked with Col. George E. (Bud) Day, also for a short time. I was there for a couple more years. Made Senior Airman, instead of Sergeant as a member of the 2nd group to not make Sgt when the rank of SrA was introduced. In May 78 I moved to Nellis AFB, NV, and in June photographed my 2nd aircraft accident. By August I was teaching my coworkers how to do crash & accident photos. I probably met Capt. Sullenberger while I was there, as I was one of the photographers for the Red Flag accident investigation he mentioned in his book. Captain Mark Postai was married to one of my former coworkers there when he died. She'd been one of my trainers there as a young SrA., then got out, became a RN, and married Mark. I spent 5 years there. A couple years in Turkey, 1983-85. Worked in the hanger Francis Gary Powers had flown out of when he was shot down over The USSR in 1960. Ran the base photo lab, as I'd been promoted to TSgt shortly after I arrived. And got chained to a desk. When my 2 years there were up I moved to Eglin AFB again, once again in a new career field, SATCOM, after schools at Keesler AFB, MS, and Ft. Gordon, GA. Only got to stay 6 months, due to my unit closing. They'd sent the terminal I was supposed to work on to Thule AS, Greenland. Offered to let me go there, remote for a year. Turkey was considered a remote tour, too. So I turned it down. Wound up back in Turkey again, this time at Pirinclic AB,? near Diyarbakir, Turkey, for a year. Left there in the fall of 87, for Sumter, SC, and Shaw AFB. There for four years. Counting being deployed to Riyadh Saudi Arabia for Desert Shield/Desert Storm. From Shaw to Germany, very late in 1991, to Wiesbaden, and Lindsey AS, in an 19th Century Cavalry base. And 3? other bases before I left Germany in early 1996, to Tinker AFB, OK, and the OKC metro... Been here 28 years now. Longer than I was in the Air Force...

Sgt. Meyers, did you have anything to do with 99125 in the Air Force? I was at Lowry and Fiji and your name seems familiar to me.
