Awww...it can't be that bad. I just figured the Grizzly unit came
from the same factory in China and I could start making stuff for only
$500.
OK, maybe 0.020", then. snicker Spend a bit more and get discrete
machines. Combos always cause a lot more frustration, especially when
you need to make 2+ of something. [My knowledge of this comes from
combo woodworking machines (my buddy's ShopSmith), but I've heard the
horror stories here, too.]
