I've had heavy 10's in production shops. But they are more typically found
in the toolroom making jigs & fixtures for the production shop.

For real home shop use, there are a few names that
stand out. Atlas, Logan, South Bend. Of course none
of those folks still make new machines. But one will
almost *never* see one of those brands in a working
commercial shop.

Have to disagree there. While Atlas and Logan may be uncommon in
commercial
shops, I've seen quite a few with South Bends.

In a *real* production shop? Not a mantainance facility,
but a place where they actually produce parts for money?

It's really really tough to make any money with old
belt-drive SBs.
