Darn, missed that one completely and it's about $100 cheaper... and
someone recommended Grizzly earlier, too!

Oh well...

We evaluated our mechanical requirements and space available and figured
the 30" machine would be overkill ...

Baileigh Industrial seems to be the only company offering a machine
smaller than 30" - they have a little 12 incher for about $400 (they are
very proud of their iron - and their reputation) that will be a good
entry point for us - and we can always up-size later to a wider machine
if needed...

If nothing else, Grizzly usually has a nice manual and parts list you
can download.

What you missed what that going with a Chinese 3 in 1 machine is a
poor choice compared to buying quality used US equipment like quality
Pexto and Diacro- Hide quoted text -

I would have to agree.

In all seriousness, I would start watching for Diacro equipment...it
will take some time unless you want to pay the Ebay rates but it is
well worth the hunt.
