Hello All
A friend has a South Bend Serial Number 50560NAR10 for sale. He owns a machine shop and has ground and scraped the bed and cross slides. It has a QC gearbox. I have not seen it and assume it is a 9" with the short bed. If it is as good as it sounds is it worth $1000(with motor and bench)? Or would I be better off saving my pennies for a newer oriental machine?
Cheers
