Ed Steinkirchner Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 just bought this little lathe for 300 dollars a week ago. ive no idea who the maker is, or if it is a good lathe or not, or even if it was worth the money or not. it works very well, but thet is the opinion of someone who hasn't used a lathe since i had metal shop 5 years ago. well what are your thoughts?

cavala Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 It looks like an old south bend or one of its many clones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkunkler Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I think what you have is a Craftsman Model 109. See if this helps you. http://www.owwm.com/pubs/222/2112.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have a grand old work shop. oscer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
