That mention of a South Bend lathe takes me back to about 1963 when I was 14-15 years old .The first metal lathe I ever used ,I think it was 9 inch and had about a 5 gallon bucket full of change gears with it .Surprising what that old antique could do .Then again looking back surprising what I could do at that young age .My dad who was a journyman tool and die maker at one time said i was a natural .--Funny I ended up as an electrician some how .Go figure .
