Monarch 10EE Lathes

[Zgoo]

I sell and restore Monarch 10EE toolroom lathes, they are considered to me one of the best lathes ever built!! They are a work of art!!

The 10EE above is a rare unrestored with clean factory paint!!

That is the cleanest Monarch EE I've ever seen pics of. When was it made? Is it your lathe?

Here is a 1950's video of the Monarch manufacturing facility in Sydney, Ohio.

Monarch Lathe Factory

When my uncle retired long years back, they retired his office lathe and mill as well and made them a retirement gift to him. As head of the tool and die shop, he had a lathe and mill in his office. The lathe was a 10EE and when it was bought, the buyer got every accessory there was for it. About 6 years after he retired, they were so desperate for a dozen or more 10EE's, the they cut a deal and bought it and all the accessories from him. I think he said it had about 100 hours total use time since it was delivered from the factory.

One I doubt I will ever be able to try, never seen one in the UK at all (though some were cast in the UK).

I used one pretty regularly in a maintenance and repair role between 2008 and 2012. It was a 1948 model and still plenty accurate. 4400lbs!

I sell and restore Monarch 10EE toolroom lathes,

does that mean you might be the one to help me figure out a glitch on my modular drive lathe?

My previous employer had one in their Machine Shop, as the company Maintenance Technician I had very little to do with the machine.

You will get better replies from the Monarch forum at Practical Machinist on your issue. This guy is a dealer who is also on PM, I guess he just found this place?

I should send you my Rivett 1020s to restore.
Nice work.
