'41 10EE comparison

We're now a "double 10 double E" family. I have a '41 10EE Monarch built in Ohio. The kid (my 22 year old son) has a '41 unit built in Chicago.

Looking at them, there are several differences. Mine has a rocker arm accross the front of the machine for forward/stop/reverse. His has a forward stop reverse switch just below the spindle nose, making the headstock castings different. The FEED forward/reverse knob is different. Mine has a toothed flat belt drive from motor to spindle. The other unit has a double V belt. I'm sure we will discover other differences as we give the new old girl a test run this weekend.

Mine is worth WAY more than his. I thought a I got a deal at $3500. His is only worth $811.50

Just curious, how many sites have built 10EEs, and are there a lot of other differences in the various 40s model 10EEs. I know the 50s units had a lot of changes.

Maybe Ned Simmonds or Gary Repesh can chime in here. They both have s lot of 10EE experience.

You do know about this site, right?

Or if it doesn't work out,

and follow down to the "Monarch" section.

Lots of monarch gear-heads there.

The monarch guys are pretty good. Possibly the best group overall of knowledgeable folks on the drive systems.

The entire forum (moderated) is pretty nice too. The OT polticio crap is strictly contained and bounced out if it intrudes where its not wanted.
