I am considering buying a 2003 model TL1 lathe. I plan to fly out Tuesday to take a look at it. This is the first HAAS anything I have even laid eyes on but the price is very good I think.
Looking at using it for gunsmith work mainly. I currently use a Mazak but think some things may be easier on this lathe. I asked about thread repair option which I set on the new tl1 lathes the owner does not know if this lathe has the option enabled or not. I called the local HAAS dealer worth the serial number and they did not know if it is on this lathe or if it could be added?
Is there anything I should look for in these lathes?
Thanks in advance.
