If you've ever wanted an HSL with a tailstock this is your chance. A machinist friend of mine had a partner who was putting this together when he passed away unexpectedly. He extended the base with ground plate, very nicely fitted up. I think the bed must be from a DV59 or equivalent. Spindle bearings are new. Before installing the spindle he installed the test bar, shown laying in the chip pan, and had the bed ground parallel to the test bar. LA Grinding did the work. The headstock and draw bar and motor were restored and professionally repainted with data plates from Hardinge. Not sure where the cabinet came from. The machine runs great, smooth and quiet. I'll try to post a video later. Tailstock needs restoration and paint although works fine as is. Has been sitting in this unfinished state for years. Price is $1,400. I'm sure he had much more into it. Actually this could be turned back into an HSL easily and might make it more desirable. Machine is located in Woodland Hills, CA (Los Angeles area).
