WTB: south bend mill parts

badwithusernames said:

I know it's a long shot, but I'm looking for the following, for a round ram early south bend milling machine:
spindle brake lever
table gibs
several pieces of the quill feed, or would take the entire mill head
Thanks! SD

I have more South Bend mill parts than anyone on the planet
But I don't have a brake lever. Maybe I have the other parts you need...
Email me a list.

Do you have the brake shoe? It's an aluminum casting withe the break material on it.

Not knowing what model SBL Mill you have, I did a quick Google image search.. Acer and Webb mills, still in production, look identical to the image I could find. If you can post a photo of the brake lever tang sticking out of the side of the head, along with the length/width and hole size, I'll tell you if my Webb mill brake lever would fit.

hardly. i believe the mill he's referring to resembles an old -M- head BPT. Acer and Webb mills are taiwanese.
