Anyone know more about this unit and where to purchase it? It appears to have more options in that the head can rotate and also has RPM indicator built into the head. Motor moved to the back and maybe a DRO not sure. Looks like a serious improvment on the original X3.

Anyway looking for more info and places to buy in the US.

I would like to know also wher one can buy this from ?

I've been looking also and only found lathemaster (http://www.lathemaster.com/) and they don't offer the super x3. it looks like avery good mill with a realy good price.

I belive I saw on the lathemaster group that Bob will be ordering some of the super x3's around christmas if ifyou want one you might want to email him, sounds like there gona go fast.

You can get them direct from Sieg for $850 + freight (~$100) and custom.

Is that $850 for the super x3?
If so that not as bad as i thought it would be.

I think Sieg will only sell to the distributor, Lathemaster for the USA market.
I don't think they will sell to you if you live in the USA.
Jose.

There have been a few people on the lathemaster yahoo list that have bought direct. they say tho that its not really worth it to save money, the only reason to do it is if you want a special options included that you cant normally get in the US.

I jsut got a quote of $1100 FOB the factory for a Super X3
