This is a very lonely web site but maybe there is one other hardinge owner that can help me. My lathe is a 1972 HLV-H toolroom lathe. I wanted to turn some 1-1/2 inch stock between centers. Acquired the spindle nose drive plate, 5-C center and dog. Gotta say this looks very different than on my previous lathes. I think i figured out how to set this up but it looks very puny looking to me. Anybody got a photo of a close up shot of the headstock spindle set up for turning between centers ? that would help a lot. The hardinge operations manual does not help worth a stink. Also, the driving dog only accomadates up to 1 inch stock. Does this mean you gotta turn down the end of every stock bar to 1" in order to turn between centers ?
