Hey Folks,
A few days ago I had an unfortunate (not to mention dumb!) and catastrophic crash on my 10K lathe. I was knurling, power feeding towards the tail stock and while I was focusing on keeping the knurling wheels lubricated, the carriage ran into the tail stock, which I had locked down pretty well. As I heard the lathe slow down and 'groan', I immediately hit the off switch, but not quick enough.... just as it was coming to a halt, I heard a 'squeal and a pop'
I won't go into the gory details (I am attaching an X-rated photo), but I need some parts for the quick change gearbox on my 1960's vintage South Bend 10K lathe (serial number 36832K).
The part #'s are;
AS619NK1 compound pinion 16 tooth. (assembly of 32 tooth gear, 16 tooth gear and pins)
AS622NK1 pinion gear 16 tooth. (assembly of 32 tooth gear, 16 tooth gear and pins)
I saw the list of potential sources of SB parts here on the forum but assume that most of them are watching this forum and thought I would just send one e-mail request.
I sure hope I can find some reasonable quality replacements. or has anyone found equivalent gears in a standard gear catalog? what I really need is one 16 tooth pinion and one 32 tooth pinion.... I think I could press the old gear set apart and replace the damaged gear)
I sure hope I don't have to drag out my old Ellis dividing head and begin the process of learning how to cut gears!?!?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
