South Bend Spares
For the "9-inch" Model


Parts to fit BOXFORD and SOUTH BEND 9-inch and 10K lathes and "clones" by BOXFORD, SMART & BROWN, HERCUS, PURCELL, SHERATON and BLOMQVIST
All new items below are fine quality, British-made:


T-SLOTTED CROSS SLIDE
NEW HIGH-QUALITY, UK-MANUFACTURED
T-SLOTTED CROSS SLIDES suitable for all South Bend and Boxford lathes of 4.5" and 5" centre-height. Ready to fit and use with gib strip and recessed degree scale. The design of the slide has recently been revised to improve its versatility and now includes a slot across the front - as well as three to the rear - and machined sides. The T-slots are spaced the same distance apart as those on a Myford lathe and thus the milling slide from maker can be used. These modifications allow the unit to be more easily used as a small boring table - and provide flat, vertical locations against which other items can be registered. The later type of "inset" rotational scale for the top slide is included, so the unit can be left on the lathe for regular operations as well. Fully machined and ready to fit. Your existing cross-feed screw and nut just transfer across. Another advantage of the slide its that, unlike the standard unit, it's a full-length type and so provides a more rigid platform for the top slide - as well as evening out way on the cross-slide ways.
