The X4 looks like one hell of a machine.
Does anyone know what the US price will be? It looks from the Australian and Canadian websites its likely going to be in the US$6500 range when it does arrive. If that holds true, as nice as it is, it will likely be sort of irrelevant for two reasons;
First is that it would be the same price as a Tormach at that point and so would not likely win out in any head-to-head comparison for those buying mills in that price range.
Second is that it would be the same price as a Tormach which puts it well out of the price range of most hobbyists, which is why we have so few Tormach owners in the first place and so few competing mills in that price sector.
It's too bad, because it looks like a very useful mill. |
