i almost bought one of the 7xs just recently, but opted for the 9x20. I am much happier that i went with the 9x20 now. Like all the chinese imports, it requires some good cleaning and tuning. I've only turned some mid to high carbon steel on it thus far(no small diameter either). It has plenty of power, doesnt even slow down when biting the surface of a 4 inch dia. piece. |
