South Bend SB1001 Lathe CNC Conversion

Last update February 21, 2017

Here are the SolidWorks model files associated with the YouTube video below detailing the conversion of a South Bend SB1001 lathe to CNC operation. There are multiple ideas in the assembly called "Alternative CNC drive 1-3" and can be (un-)suppressed. Contact me if you have any questions and especially if you make something wonderful based on these ideas.
