That Hardinge is a good deal. It has the threading attachment on it, which is pretty pricey alone.
Hardinge lathes do not typically have lead screws, so they rely on a follower threading attachments to make threads.
The HC or Chucker as it is known, has a threaded spindle nose… so it you throw it in reverse, its possible to have the chuck come off. Just one thing to keep in mind. These machines were designed for production. The drive is a Reeves style drive similar to our milling machines & drill press. This means the speed is infinitely variable between the lowest & highest. It is not your typical lathe either, so no normal power feeds, tailstock, normal compound
If I had the space & money I’d buy it myself. Mainly to do small batches of some of the tools I sell. (Rapid Repeatability)
