Ilino, The machine you show is the midrange machine. If you look at the "intermediate Y-axis" bed, it's bolted to a base. The heavy (6,000 lb.) machine is cast as a one piece base that the column is bolted to. That base also has a "protrusion" at the front to extend the Y-axis. So my original guess of 2 sizes was wrong, there are at least 3. I still stick with my kajillion brand names. BTW, SORCHEROR got a hell of a deal, these are tough iron. I,m working on some multi-axis (more than 3) attachments for the 6,000 lb. machines right now. I guess I've beaten this horse enough now. Good luck on those machines.
