Great forum... I've found a ton of valuable info here.
Recently picked up a mid fifties, 12' long, Southbend 16. It has been sitting idle outside for I don't know how long... literally a rats nest inside the apron. Turns out its pretty complete and in descent shape. I've got just about everything disassembled, cleaned, and inspected. I've found and ordered nearly all the parts that I need, but am still in need of a few things that I can't seem to locate.
I'm looking for a worm gear bushing, and some tumbler levers. I have made a repair to the very worn worm gear bushing and it will work if I need it to, but would rather find a replacement if possible. The tumbler lever castings are worn oval, and probably could be bored and sleeved, but I don't have a mill.
