doesn't look like any south bend that i have ever seen although i am not an expert, the tag does seems to be french or some other language, without a make and model i would probably pass, might be a good machine but if its setup as metric and you want do any thread cutting other than metric you...

thanks for the reply i need to get it cleaned up and put it to use

i have this same anvil with the Mc's marking but mine also has a star and circle under the bell, would be interesting to know more about it but i'm sure i never will

i bought one for my walker turner on amazon it was about $10, mine used a pin on the shaft to attach it where some other has a slot in the shaft the spring engages into, found the right style and just bought it based on dimensions and its been working fine Search drill press return spring thanks

im interested to see what people say, i toyed with the idea of a multiprocess machine but ended up with a miller 211 transformer machine i got a good deal used but had hardly seen any use, im still on the hunt for a tig machine. i like the idea of the machine that can do it all but they can be...

That's why its likely I'll never use it. It has its benefits but might not be worth the hassle. Thanks

Thanks guys The coolant pump is a cool little accessory. Not sure if I'll ever use it but it's all restored and ready to go if I do.

when i did my shop i used a roller but i used one of the large 18" rollers, they cost a little more and you have to have the large roller tray to use it but man did it go fast, used a brush in the corners and rolled everything else, the ceiling was open so i didn't have a seam there to worry...

i think it's funny all the responses you get that say they're for pussies or it somehow makes you tougher not to wear them. i guess cutting your hands i considered tough and not dumb when it was easily preventable by wearing a pair of gloves. i work for a heavy equipment dealer and about 10...

i have had one for probably a year and a half with no issues, i know a lot of people love them and a lot of people hate them, what are our options for the side mount style openers other than commercial? i have two doors and only one currently has an opener on it. i will say the big bonus with...

i like them for the times i need something other than a Phillips or standard screwdriver, mainly because of the interchangeable bits. i keep a few torques and square drive bits in the handle as well as a small Phillips and straight bit.. i tend to use it more when i'm doing electrical work, i...

i have used several different 120 and 240 welders with good success for auto body work, the fine adjustment definitely helps and using gas with .024 wire is the key, far to often people try to use flux .030 wire and destroy what they are trying to work on. you can also get an easy grind wire so...
