Hi all,
I have a South Bend 9B metal lathe. I bought off of a member her in the forum. The motor is the original GE motor from 1947. It still appears to be working just fine, but the wiring really make me nervous. I have had the lathe for a few months now, and have rarely even used it or plugged it in. I like my house to much to burn it done, and SWMBO would not like a chard section of our home.
My question is should I get the motor wiring replaced and serviced, or should I just guy a new motor all together. I would really
For a new motor I am looking at a Leeson 110086. Opinions?
