I am looking at a Southbend Lathe with #20595 no letters after it. The lathe has been sitting in a garage for 5 yrs and is in pretty good condition. Though some parts have been sitting under it in milk crates. It has a thread dial but not attached. Is this lathe able to cut threads it has a plate showing the TPI settings on the cast iron leg by the front of the machine. From what I can tell this lathe was made around 1920?
