I don't know much about the Hardinge DV59 and I've only seen pictures.I don't know how hard they are to find,what tooling they use/have.Is it just a 5c collet system...no 3 or 4-jaw chucks?It didn't appear to have a tail stock,but maybe it was just missing or not in the pictures.I'm just looking for something smaller,exclusively for turning.I don't really need to be chasing threads and I don't expect to turn many tapers(might come up occasionally?) I don't think this lathe has the quick change gear box.I never saw one in the pictures I saw.Looked just like just a hi and low gear.I'd be interested in hearing about this model and any other smaller models.I am not familiar with all of them.
