Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Forgot to mention; both the 2 step and 3 step pulleys on the countershaft pulleys are flat.

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
That's normal, a vee belt pulley on the motor and a flat pulley on the countershaft. Both my 1929 drummond and SB clone do that.

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
John, yes they are I was talking about the motor pulley being flat and the diameter of the motor pulley, Joe

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Ok, so your motor pulley is flat, (slight ovel) to it and they are 2.100 thousand and 3.400 thousand, Joe

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Joe Sorry I wasn’t clear. ?The motor pulley is a 2 step V pulley. ?The driven pulley on the countershaft is a 2 step flat pulley. Hope that helps. John

Here’s a picture.

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Looks like a standard countershaft pulley .? I've had & used my 9A for many , many years & have never moved the belt to the smaller pulley on the motor . animal

Do you ever cut threads?

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Rick, guess I did not explain what I was asking correctly, let me explain what I have and the question that I organelle asked, the one that I have has a "V" belt pulley on the motor, the belt goes up

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
I am talking about the Pulley that is on the motor shaft that belt would turn a single flat drive pulley that on the opposite end is the triple drive (counter shaft" that goes to the three shives on

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
It was very normal to have a vee belt pulley on the motor, driving a vee belt, that then ran on a flat pulley on the countershaft. This was true even on original lathes from the 1920's. They work much

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Joe, that wasn't a reply to you. It was a response to Animal, the post I quoted. He said he never uses the slow speed pulley. I use that every time I thread. That said, the 2 step flat pulley on my

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
There are some pictures of a 1925 SB on vintage machinery. ?It uses a flat belt from the motor. ?It could easily have been driven by a line shaft which might explain the flat

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Joe I found this catalog at vintagemachinery.org. http://www.vintagemachinery.org/pubs/1617/31870.pdf Do any of these look like your lathe? John

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Hi John, That picture shows what apparently used to be a line shaft countershaft unit. You can see the brackets for the fast/loose pulley shifter. If you look on eg this page, you can see an example

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
All the lathes I've seen go from V-belt pulley on motor to Non V as the Driven pulley on the countershaft .
By mike allen · #236 ·
Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
That's the first one I've seen with a flatbelt from motor to counter shaft . Looks like the countershaft is out on alignment in that second pic . Is that a 9B or one of I think a " O " model ? That

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Thanks John, I will look thought the and see if I can see what the Motor pulley looks like and of course save to file, thanks, Joe

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
Thanks John, that looks very similar to mine, I have the change model and all the gears, yes at that date (1925) it probably was a line shaft machine, I have a Sidney that was just changed over it was

Re: 9" 1925 South Bend Lathe
ok, wrong place, yes my large pulley on the counter shaft that goes down to the motor is a single pulley, would have to use back gear if I want to thread slow, thanks, Joe
