lathe
Being a SB you have great backup with parts and information.
I see it has power feeds which is essential . When it comes time to set it up , it pays to get it running as smoothly as possible, less vibrations the better . V belts tend to cause vibrations . I used a serpentine multi rib automotive belt from the motor to the counter pulley , I bought a Mitsubishi crank pulley for the counter shaft and machined a pulley for the motor . I have a SB clone , made here by Sheraton in Melbourne . The lathe now runs very smooth, almost nil vibrations
