Description

In what I would say remarkable condition. Did not clean it all good with this

PLEASE CHECK THE DIMENTIONS SO WE KNOW IT WILL FIT.
Some
dimensions
to help ....
I have 12 1/2 width.
Left bolt hole is 1 3/16 from the edge of the casting to the end of the bolt hole and from the front to the end of the bolt hole is 1 7/8.
Right bolt hole is 1 from the edge of the casting to the end of the bolt hole and from the front to the end of the bolt hole is 1 1/16.
From bolt edge to bolt edge is 11 1/4.
I did use my steel rule to measure and some are hard to get because of the set up so some wiggle room.
From an ebay member:
I’ve bought from you in the past. Everything went perfect. This item 392903810591 your description you seem like you’re not sure what it goes to, it is an apron for an early model SB 13”. Like maybe
1945-1955
range. Might be a little later, but not much. It’s previous to the cam lock upgrade for the autofeed at least.
PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO BE HAPPY!
I am by no means an expert!
*
For clarity I view "Best offer" as you want to buy several things or it is an expensive thing ... yes then I am will to talk. However I do not view "Best Offer" as an offer of 40 to 60 percent less then ...
* For things I have a bunch of (Gears, handles, other parts) I dont think it is fair to discount the price for one person and then not someone who just buys it. I dont want to get in to dollar her and there I feel it will just lead to hard feelings. If you want a bunch of "gears" then sure we can talk but for one or two. Hope this makes sense?
* I am not cleaning anything any more. All this stuff has been sitting on my garage since my dad got sick I am guessing 11 years or more now. If it has gotten to bad I toss it like the 12 atlas tail stocks and the 3 milk crates of collets and all the other stuff. Everything I am selling needs to be cleaned but it will work. I am not going to rip anyone off by selling junk I am not at 60 standing in front of a wire wheel anymore!
* EBay has changed there return policy. As a seller you either have the option of no returns 30 days or 60 days. I can not do 30 or 60 days to be honest it doesn’t make sense to me. More so eBay has informed me that I half to describe every scratch (how do you describe every scratch on a piece of metal?) ding or mark on everything. If I can not then I must take pictures of everything. I did ask about a book of 100 pages … the short answer is I half to take pictures of every page and post them … I am sure you can see the problem and how impossible it is to describe a part that has been used in a machine shop or a book 100 years old. So I have chosen no returns. I will extend to you the following as my father did. If within two weeks you don’t like it just send me a note and I am willing to take it back no questions asked less shipping and eBay costs. I believe this is far to all of us if you have concerns please drop me a note.
* A note on shipping. I give a price to ship the item, the reason I do this is so everyone is on the same page. Yes if you live in New York maybe the shipping can be a little bit cheaper and yes if you live in the West maybe the shipping should be a little more, who knows? But I think and it is just me if everyone is on the same table it is all fair. So please add the cost of the item and the shipping together and if that is what you are willing to pay then everyone is good.
YUP I will combine shipping no problem!
PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS! I stuff to get rid of!
For the actual cost of shipping … if you like a quote please just ask.
I am will to ship anywhere in the world! and HAVE with NO PROBLEMS!
PLEASE NOTE
For some of my listing because of an eBay change (mostly machinery parts) it will only show shipping the the USA. If you are not in the USA let me know I can get a quote for shipping and forward it to you and then send an invoice through eBay and ship through them.
I have shipped stuff all over (USSR, Europe, China, Australia, South America to name a few) for years not a problem at all for me. I promise you it will get there safe and sound.
