South Bend Lathe Company began producing world class lathes in 1908, quickly setting the world benchmark for lathe design and manufacturing.  Many of those lathes are still in use today due to their superior design and manufacturing.  Over the years, South Bend has also produced many instructional books and literature on using and operating lathes.  This collection includes much of their most popular early publications, as well as most of their vintage lathe parts lists and vintage lathe catalogs and brochures.  If you have an old South Bend lathe and need to find some information on it, this DVD is a great place to start.  We believe this is the largest collection ever assembled and hope you find it useful.  Here is a listing of all the books, guides, parts lists, and catalogs that are included in this collection:
