Milling Machines and Horrible Fright coupons
I have resigned myself to the fact that a full sized knee mill is just not
possible or feasible for now . Right now , the best compromise for me is going to be an X3 type mill/drill . I have room for one that size , and it will do most of the projects I have in mind . The bigger stuff will just have to wait . I've been looking around for a 15% off one item (or even 10% ...) coupon with no luck . Do they still have these ? If so , can one of y'all fine folks provide me with a link ? -- Snag wannabe machinist |

Wish I had a link but don't feel bad about the knee mill. With the price of steel and other materials, most of us are not going to be machining large chunks of metal very often. Besides the X3 is a nice platform for mach3 fwih. Can you pick it up and save on freight? Wes |

I haven't seen a 20% for a while, but 15% coupons still show up occasionally on the flyers in the mail, and once in a great while in one of the emails. Make sure you're on the lists and just wait I guess. |

No shipping charge . 999 isn't a bad price , but 849 leaves more money for tooling ... -- Snag '90 Ultra "Strider" '39 WLDD "Popcycle" Buncha cars and a truck |

Milling Machines and Horrible Fright coupons
The coupons for singe item discounts are usually only on the mailed
flyers. Get on the HF mailing list.

JR Dweller in the celar I already get the flyers , just haven't been watching for those coupons . I did find a 20% off on the 'net , and intend to use it today ... or try . I think I tried to use one like this a year or so ago , they insisted it was bogus - but did offer me a 15% reduction . At that time , and on the item I wanted , 20 % would have put it within my means , 15% didn't . -- Snag wannabe machinist |
