I have a 21” swing South Bend lathe with a 12’ bed that I need to sell.
The lathe (SN 24534), appears to be in good condition and was originally shipped on 9/27/20. I have measured the backlash on the compound and cross slide and both of them are less than .010”. I have cleaned a section of the front way near the headstock and as you can see from the two pictures, the ways look pretty good and there does not appear to be a dreaded South Bend Ridge on the ways.
Additional pictures show the main spindle bearing cap and the spindle. While there is some scoring, it is not bad at all.
Only a few change gears are available with the lathe and they can be seen in the pictures.
Here are some of the accessories that come with the lathe:
• One 12” three jaw chuck with soft jaws,
• One 16” four jaw chuck
• One 11” chuck backplate
• One 18” faceplate
• One steady rest
• One follower rest
• A threading dial
• A rebuilt 5Hp 3 phase motor
I can load onto a flat bed trailer. The available literature shows the weight of the lathe to be about 4200lbs.
