Hi folks
We just bought our South Bend Lathe on local auction. We pay for it the same amount as if you go and buy "mini" lathe from harbor freight. So I'm pretty happy with it. Come with VFD already. We have it in our shop already and can't decide if we should restore it or not. How hard is it? How bad can I screw it up? We would really love to do it but not sure if we will be able to put it back together later. Here is couple pictures of it
