WTB 5C collet to #2Morse taper or #3 Morse taper inside.

The only spares I have are the 0 and 2 Morse taper. Both are brand new, sealed in the Hardinge plastic bags. These are hardened and ground. They are laser etched Hardinge 5C #2 (for example) Morse on the side. Current Hardinge price is $200 + tax and shipping. I will sell either one for $120 including insured priority postage. I can take a picture, but you cannot really see the collet through the packaging. Of course, I could also take a picture of the one I use.

Here is the Hardinge list of 5C with Morse tapers: https://shophardinge.com/productGrid.aspx?catID=11198

The slightly cheaper alternative is to get a soft steel plug chuck and drill, bore and ream it yourself. The plug chuck is $54 + tax and shipping. Good reamer sets (rough and finish) are not cheap. ShopHardinge - 10150000000000

Maybe not helpful, but...
I have also been collecting 5C to Morse taper adapters.
I have a Covel cylindrical grinder with a 5C workhead
and I will be converting my Brown Sharpe #13 grinder
workhead to a Hardinge lathe AHC spindle, so it will
eventually have 5C instead of #7 B&S.
So far I have 5C to #1, #2, and #3 Morse adapters.
Looking for #4 Morse adapter, as I have some jobs
that currently require #4 Morse. My friend has one,
lucky dog. I also have 5C to #7 B&S and an really
odd one, 5C to 6 Jacobs chuck taper.
Anyone with 5C to 4 Morse, let me know if you want
to sell it.
