    Hardinge Indexer: HV-4N "H"

    Got some news - before I posted this thread, I called and left a message at Hardinge (thinking it would be forgotten) - and someone called me back. They actually did a little research and told me this interesting news: At some point, the indexers were outsourced to some other third party...

    Hardinge Indexer: HV-4N "H"

    Awesome. Yeah, I was worried is might be some weird model that I couldn't use. Thanks Larry, for setting my mind at ease ;)

    Hardinge Indexer: HV-4N "H"

    Thanks for the info - appreciate it! I see Larry added some insight as well. But the mystery still remains as to what the "H" is in the picture (I posted in my reply to Larry).

    Hi Larry - thanks for clarifying. But what is the H for in this one?

    WTB: Bridgeport Quill Handwheel

    No, I'm looking for the main quill. It basically looks like a steering wheel.

    WTB: Bridgeport Quill Handwheel

    Does anyone have a Bridgeport hand wheel for the quill (the original Bridgeport version) they'd like to sell? I really like the look of the ones that Bridgeport used to sell as an accessory.

    Hardinge HV-4 Spindle Removal

    Thanks MT2! I got her figured out. Was simple - set the spindle to zero, and with a plastic dead blow, tap it out. All back together and working great!

    Hardinge HV-4 Spindle Removal

    Awesome - would love to see them. My mill is tied up and hoping to not have to make a specialty tool.

    Hardinge HV-4 Spindle Removal

    About to give mine a good clean up and all that. Wondering what everyone else uses to remove the nut holding the spindle in. Before I make one, just wondering if there is an easier method I'm not knowing?

    DSM59 - The Wrong Choice?

    Although the bar length is relatively short - 12", that sounds like a really possible cause. The force and RPM causing the slightest variation in rotation. Excellent advice - I'll make something up and see if it rectifies the issue. Thanks Pete!

    DSM59 - The Wrong Choice?

    This is good to know Alan. I feel like I'm not crazy and that these (are) tricky to learn at first. And jobs on PM?? They offer jobs to bid? Had NO idea...

    DSM59 - The Wrong Choice?

    Thank Fred. See this is EXACTLY what I wanted to hear. I did inquire about ground stock, but thought that I could be a hero and turn in. And I know you *can* - but at my beginning level of experience with this particular machine, it's (literally) "pays" to go with ground stock, already finished.

    DSM59 - The Wrong Choice?

    Hmm... that's who quoted me the $240. I'll look into the info you gave me, THX!!

    DSM59 - The Wrong Choice?

    I ran some test pieces and below are my numbers. I'm assuming that due to stick-out and the stock being flimsy, I get a bigger dia. on the right side. Collet Side, ------ Right Side, ---------Difference...
