Your the lucky ones
I am in the USA my great granfather came from England.?

Dave?


Re: Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

That's what I'd concluded from looking on the lathes website, although some of the parts look more 'squared off' than the castings of the real SBs, and the feet look a bit different.
I'm looking forward to getting it up and running. All the slideways and bearings etc seem to run beautifully, so I hope it'll be accurate too.
It should be a bit more rigid than my little Hamilton round bed :)


Re: Intro

 

Hi Dave, welcome! You're not the only Brit in the group, although I managed to escape to Canada a few years back


Re: Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

The lathe looks per 1930's South Bend Lathe .
The thread dial look like the latest from 1990's

Re: Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

Here's a few pictures of the lathe. I have a countershaft pulley and motor which was originally hanging from the ceiling above the lathe. Not sure whether I'll do the same or build a swingarm arrangement.


Re: Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

Most clones had ball or roller bearing head stock and V-belts.
From what read is most parts can be exchanged but headstocks.

Re: Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

There some machine tools made in world war 2 by others due to shortages of tools.
This lathe? sound like one.
FYI uploading photos is very simple on phones with the new groups.io

Looking for info on a Carl Hansen clone of a 9" South Bend

 

Hi group, I posted this question in the previous group, and thank you to the people that replied. I found I couldn't post anything else in the thread or upload any pictures so I'll try again here.
The lathe in question looks (to me at least) like a South Bend, and in fact has been fitted with the change gears and cover from one. The headstock has "C.Hansen Wpg" cast into it. I bought it from a gentleman here in Montreal who had it originally from Mr Hansen himself. He was the engineering supervisor for MacDonald aircraft in Winnipeg and apparently made a number of 9 and 14 inch lathes in the 1930's and 40's. I found a reference to him in the local papers from 1934; he was apparently an active member in the local model engineering society.
I've searched the internet, and read through everything possibly relevant on lathes.co.uk but have found no other info. If anyone knows anything or has another example of Mr Hansen's lathes I'd be really interested to hear from you. I'll try to upload some pictures of the lathe.


Re: Intro

 

Welcome to the group
I understand the Boxford lathes?where license by South Bend.
Most of the 10K parts are same too.
The main difference between 9N and 10K is 3/8” in spindle hight.

Dave


Intro

 

Hi Group,

I'm the owner of a SB 9" Model C, c.1934 lathe (s/n 62999) and am interested in learning from the experiences shared within this group.

I live in Hampshire, England that can make obtains spare parts interesting to say the least but I understand many of the period Boxford lathes carry compatible parts.

Regards,
Dave


Re: 9" Taper attachment plans

 
Edited

I uploaded the file section sets of drawings and building data

Odds it same or almost same in files here for free.

My self I try putting free how to on HMT
The site did not want free?
Next ok copyright put price on how The site only wanted one person (book on single to three phase) . But Amazon and Google books did take the book. FYI the key parts I did post here for free on phase converter.
