If you are contemplating doing a "Spring Cleaning" on that old South Bend sitting in your garage, this manual is what you will need to get the job done. " A Guide to Renovating the South Bend Lathe 9" Model A, B & C and Model 10k " This brand new expanded and revised guide is 106 pages, soft cover, and is fully illustrated with almost 250 B&W photographs plus step-by-step instructions. For close-up views of sample pages from the book, see the additional photos included above. Click on the "enlarge" button to see more clearly. As you will notice, this is not a fuzzy Xerox reprint of an older existing manual. This newly published book was produced over the last two years specifically with the South Bend Lathe enthusiasts in mind and it addresses the most commonly asked questions and methods for how to renovate a used tool. Even though South Bend ceased production of these fine quality these lathes years ago, there are still thousands of servicable lathes out there sitting in home shops, small businesses, schools and machinery dealers. This book takes the guess work out of what to do if you find one and decide to purchase. The details include the sequence for disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and adjusting the critical components of the 10k and the 9" Model A, B, and C horizontal drive lathes. Additional infomation is included for evaluating and purchasing a used SBL if you are not lucky enough to already own one and we have added a section on refinishing industrial machinery. The typeface of the manual is two points larger than normal for those of us who prefer to work at the bench without reading glasses. The instructions are very straight forward and no prior machinery rennovation experience is required. The manual also includes a list of resources for vintage SBL owners as well as parts references, tool requirements, lubrication guides and material specifications. If you have a Southbend lathe, don't miss your chance to pick up a complete guide for a very reasonable price. PLEASE NOTE: This manual does not cover the 10L or "Heavy Ten" South Bend Lathe since they are two distinctly different designs. The South Bend 10L manual comes out in February 2011. Special note to Hercus Lathe Owners: We have shipped well over 100 rebuild manuals to our friends in OZ on request and have had excellent feedback from owners of this South Bend Lathe Sibling. The design is almost identical to the south bend and we are told that the manual works very well for those machines. We have no first-hand knowledge of the applicability but can point you to the Australian site "woodworkforums.com" where you can read up on it, talk to others and decide for yourself. We are very pleased that we are able to assist owners of these fine machines so please contact us if you have questions.
