16" South Bend Lathe and other tools

[64poncho]

Turning a Super Secret Part for a Super Secret Project on the 9" South Bend. The finish isn't the greatest but, this lathe can still hold a tight tolerance.

Nice Knurl! I like knurling, use a scissor type. Made this for my sewing machine belt cover.

Thanks man. I was impressed with this 9" lathe... seeing how it's friction fed it did a great job.
Edit: Nice knurling job..yours turned out great.

16" and 9" SBLs... I was going to sell the 9" but it's a great little lathe. Thinking I'll restore it. I'll have to snap a current pic of the 16".
This week I'll be able to dive into another Stihl 661.
