So ill start off by saying i know little about lathes, i wanted to teach myself how to run a lathe and bought a nice condition older sb locally. Ill be restoring the entire machine here shortly. Backlash is kinda excessive on the crossfeed which i can repair, but everything else is in awesome shape, bearings are tight, gears perfect etc.. im going to disassemble clean and repaint and possibly replace bearings etc. If avail. from what i gathered by the serial # its a 1922-23? It has powerfeed etc. One of my main questions: are parts available for this machine (bearings etc.) And where can i find a set of change gears for threading both metric and in.? It came with nothing. I got it for $900 and like i said it runs smooth and was well taken care of. Also im not sure exactly whay model it is, definitely similar to the 192x lathes i looked up prior to quick change gearing. Any help would really be appreciated!!
