This is a replacement part for a South bend lathe model 9C that I just received, this part was missing so made a replacement out of ABS PLA may be stronger.
I made it in 2 halves and glued them together with ABS juice.
The photo's are some I found on the net, as I did not have one to copy.
Works fine as there is not much load on the lever.
I will have other pieces for this same lathe, change gears, cross slide nut, top slide handle,
Plus whatever I need to replace because it is missing or worn out.
My lathe was made between 1937 and 1940.
clean up
Depending on your printer will need minimal clean up on the dia that fits into the hole in the apron
