Newbie with an Oldie South Bend 10

[Ilon]

Just bought a South Bend Heavy 10. I have wanted to chamber my own barrels for years and I hope I can become proficient with this beauty! Serial number 15381rkx16, not sure but I think it was made in 1964 or 1965

It exists, but I can't figure out how to get my photo's to upload, keeps saying file too large no matter what format and size I use

Darn, guess you gotta sell it and buy a 9" so the photo will fit.

A nice looking lathe,

If you use a windows pc, this can help with posting better pics. A little bit of a pain in the butt, but a work around for now. Post #99:

Posting Pictures on the South Bend Forum

First off, I use these guys... pretty simple even a CAVE MAC can do it LOL... TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting On my CANON, I can use "normal" or "infinity" for decent pics but can also get too close to focus properly. Try the MACRO setting by taking the camera...

Create an album using the TAB called MEDIA at the top of the thread. Add photos to your album. Click on the photo you want to add to your post, select "COPY IMAGE" then just PASTE it into your reply. Here is an example photo from one of my albums. It's a 10L MANUAL SPINDLE CRANK.

any advice on where I can find a steady rest for this?
