South Bend 10K Lathe


 

Can anyone furnish specs. for the 10K lathe? I am looking for a 9"/10"
w/the 1 3/8" (or larger) spindle bore & have come across a few 10K's.
Also source for parts list & drawings for the same lathe. What is the
lowdown on the 10K vs. the Regular 10". Is this the "Light 10" vs.
the "Heavy 10" Tony of the UK refers to on his wonderful website. One
better than other?

Is the more plentiful 9" a better machine(prefer the Model A). Had a
1928 9" w/1 3/8"-10 spindle about 20 years ago. An excellent machine!
A 9" Junior,I think.

I have been through the 6" Craftsman to the 10" Atlas presently. Any
help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill Scheider

From the information I have the 10K is the light 10 and virtually the same
as the 9" A in most specifications. The heavy 10 has a larger spindle bore
for 5C collets and a 2 1/4-8 spindle nose instead of the 1 1/2-8 of the
9"/10K. Also if you find a good heavy 10 it is not going to be cheap. There
have been several on Ebay recently and the went from $2500 up as against
$1000 up for 9" model A/10K and $500 up for 9" model B. 9" model C are
really not worth much as they are very basic machines.
