Default Looks like a Grizzly...

How do you like the Oneida portable?

So yes, I expect to be happy with the Grizzly. I am just puzzling now
how to deal with a 460 pound crate.


If you have the freight forwarder offload it from the truck using
their electric lift expect to get a serious balance due bill from them.
I got clipped for 0.50+/lb. for a load of MDF cabinet doors I ordered for
a job.
Smoked my biscuits.

I checked with Grizzly about that. They charge an extra $39. Not
pleasant, but better than the alternatives.
Once I have it on the ground, I can strip off the crate, table and motor,
and get the weight down to 273 pounds. Still heavy, but carryable.
