Sears 109.20630 lathe

I got this little baby a few weeks ago at the local flea market for $15.  It is a Sears, Roebuck model 109.20630, from around the mid 50's.  Several web sites list it as being manufactured by Dunlap,  As you can see, it needs a little work and a few parts.  Other then that it is in good shape.  The other picture is a comparison with the little  7 x 14 Asian lathe.  The import is a lot more durable lathe and weighs a lot more too.

12/4/08 The next two pictures are of the lathe being taken apart for cleaning and a paint job.  I also plan to do a few modifications and repairs as the project progresses.

1/2/09 Below are a few pictures of the lathe after painting and going back together.  I need to do a little work on the head stock and rig up some type of drive system, then I will be making chips!

Below is a knob handle I truned for the saddle hand wheel using the radius cutter I made for the mini lathe.     1/4/09

To the left is the finished hand wheel knob and the tool post base and rocker that I made because they where missing. 1/25/08

I made these two castings out of aluminum to mount the motor. Below are pictures of the finished lathe 2/10/09
