Work continues on the 1941 South Bend lathe.

Work continues on the 1941 South Bend lathe. I’ve cleaned up the motor housing, the chip pan and the bed and can start putting those pieces back together. The badge on the bed was painted over. I would liked to have restored it to the factory red and black colors, with just the letters staying brass, but it would have been very difficult. I decided for these, I was just going to leave it as is.⁠
