Jaynjeep, I know how you feel about your South Bend. I managed to find a vintage Logan 400 lathe a couple years ago. It came with tons of tooling and is pretty neat. Hard to find that level of quality any more.
On the Tandem, I spent a couple hours this evening starting to fab the mounts for the cylinder. No pictures as not much to show yet. A lot of cutting and grinding.
