I have a barfeed on the 10. It is good to get it set and load up the bars and go. I do not use lights out since we have not had a long run job with smaller parts to do in some time. Plus we often do not have large runs on a monthly or by weekly basis just don't have them. We usually have a average of 12-14 parts per run. When I have more I use the barfeed or puller. The barfeeder (it could be just me) does not do well with smaller diameter material and even small material like 3/16 diameter. I use a barpuller on that. Plus a barpuller can take up space for a few jobs where I might just need that extra space for a tool though rarely. We have regretted not putting the bar feed on our 20 though on occasion. The barfeed does take up a lot of space though in a crowded shop. |
