FS: South Bend Heavy-10 (1942 war baby)

Need to raise some money for my next project. Machine is in really nice condition. Machine has been fully restored, re-wicked and painted. I also furnished it with many Genuine South Bend N.O.S. parts. Bed wear is very minimal - about .003

This has the cast iron bell stand and chip pan. It also comes with a 2-drawer cabinet that's attached under the chip pan.

Features include:

- NOS Reverse lever (perfect meshing gears)
- NOS Clutch knob assembly
- NOS spindle gear
- NOS tailstock quill
- NOS tailstock screw
- NOS Compound dial, screw & Nut
- Large dial cross-feed
- NEW (Steve Wells made) cross-feed screw & Nut (NO measurable backlash)
- Brand New Leeson single-phase motor (1725 rpm)
- Brand New gearbox threading plate
- New headstock oil cups (large)
- Brand New Bison 3-jaw Chuck

Tooling
- Hand-wheel Collet Closer
- Dead center adapter for the headstock
- Lantern tool holder with 3 (left, right & straight) holders
- Back plate
- Dog driver plate
- South Bend Skinner 4-jaw chuck
- Dead center

Price: $2500 firm.

*** I also have a Clausing 8530 Milling Machine that's for sale as well. Look for the ad in the Classifieds (or PM me for details)

Here's a couple more pictures...

And the last of the pix...

Ugh, that is an absolute beaut'!
But I am confused on one detail - is the feed on the carriage a knob or the lever? I see both in the pics.

The feed is on the lever. One picture is before the large dials and clutch knob.

Still got the South Bend? Phone #? Thanx.
