I quickly put together a temporary web page for my 9" SBL restoration. Sorry if it loads slowly, I haven't taken the time to polish it up. I'll do that after I polish up the lathe

Wish I had 13". Any South Bender can join in. Lets here your story. I bought my Southbend Model A 9x 24 on ebay last week. They are shipping it today. I hope to have it after Christmas. Got it for

I picked up a 3/4 HP motor today for $35.00 and I think will help my pulley setup since it is 1150 RPM instead of the usual 1725 RPM. Its made by GE and looks like its a capacitor start, capacitor run

jwtaylor, Interesting idea, and I was considering using a 3-phase motor and vari-drive I could get for under $100. The problems are torque and price. At lower spindle speeds I'm not convinced that

Yea, an that's got me kind of confused. Timken roller bearings are cool, but where did they come from? Could I have a non-original headstock? When I receive what is supposed to be the manual for this

Paul I put one of those on my machine in 1977 when the leather belt went south. As I remember the cost then was about $50, I do not know what it would cost now. That belt is still working fine with

Does anybody have a 9" SB with a similar configuration? My 1941(?) "Precision Model A" headstock has Timken roller bearings and no back gear (as seen from the attached photo). Nothing hangs off of the
