Hello all,
I recently picked up this south bend at an auction for the low low price of $100. I have next to no machining experience so I thought I’d ask here.
To start, there’s no plug on the lathe. I do somewhat know the person who put it in the auction and he had just got a new machine, so I’m assuming he kept the plug for the new one. I’m wondering how to find out if this lathe is 3 phase or not. I can’t seem to find the serial number on the lathe anywhere. There’s just a tag that says: 16” swing, 8’ length of bed, and catalog 117E.
I really don’t know anything about this machine so any help would be appreciated. My shop is only setup for single phase, so any help in that department would be great too. Thanks in advance.
