I looked at this South Bend Model 9B long bed (48 inch) lathe last night. It needs a little bit of work to get running but it should clean up nicely. Like the owner, I have too many projects to take this one on. I said I would help him by posting it online.

Details:
  • Brand new half nuts installed
  • Many change gears, not sure if it is a complete set
  • Turret tool post
  • Three-jaw chuck
  • Micrometer stop
  • Single-phase 110 motor
  • New tail stock handle/ram installed
  • Back gear has one tooth missing, bull gear has one tooth missing, and one change gear has a chip

Lathe does not come with the bench, four-jaw chuck, or steady rest shown.

What needs to be done (other than the teeth):

  • Reinstall the metal cover on the back side of the carriage and fill reservoir with oil (all parts are included).
  • Adjust half-nuts to engage lead screw without binding.
  • Install cross-feed handle.

The machine currently runs and the lead screw/carriage feeds work. Half-nuts need adjusting.

The owner will not ship it. He does have a tractor to help load the lathe into your vehicle.

Please contact me and I will provide contact information for the owner.
