I saw an auction notice for a sale on Saturday, and looked at the stuff today. There's a Hardinge turret lathe for sale, it has a bunch of 5C collets, has a bed length of about 30", and a 6-station turret. It looks much like the one in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUt3P2_lfm0
Any ideas on what something like that would bring?
What would I use it for? I've always been fascinated by turret lathes, but can't readily see a use for other than making little brass thumb nuts. I don't need THAT many thumb nuts, however.
I'm trying to figure out whether it would be worth the space it'd take up.
