Hi Jim,
I'm new to machining and am starting a shop. I've had a Logan 9" lathe for a number of years and started looking for a milling machine. I have an aquaintenace who has a Hardinge TM mill with the vise, vertical head, overarm & bracket, and a stub arbor. He has the 4C collets for the head as well. This machine has an original electrical feed for the X axis.
This is my only mill and I think I'll be using it mostly in the vertical orientation. You said that you have a M head that you never used. Would you be interested in potentially selling you M head?
I have a couple of drill presses for drilling so I really don't need a quill, but I thought I'd start looking for a M head for my mill. I'm in no rush, for I should get the mill and start to use it.
Please let me know if you'd be willing to sell your head. I live in Oregon, so we are about as far away from each other as we can get. I'll ask around here locally too.
Thanks,
Dave
