    Default Any Hercus Experts?

    Hi!

    I have this Hercus 9" flat belt Lathe, which I bought not long ago.
    It looks quite different from the other Hercus 9" Lathes that I've seen.
    I took a look to find a serial number and found, which ranges between the lathes made in 1942 (It was on the top right of the rail).
    The thread pitch plate has no model number or serial stamped into it (I believe its a model c, It says model vb on the plate).
    I noticed the bed feet look different than normal.

    Could anyone help me identify this lathe more and maybe tell me how much it is worth?

    Thank you!

    Here are some pictures, I can take more if needed.

    Early model C, with some modifications to the coutershaft assembly. Worth anything up to about $700 depending on condition and what people are willing to pay. If you need to know anything else, give me a call on 0438466008.
