Ok, this is now getting interesting.
I see that Princess House has the X2 on sale starting on Tuesday for $799.00.
In the mean time I decide to drop in to Busy Bee to see about tooling and if they have any word on when the CT129 will be arriving.
The guys there say that all of the last batch were pre-sold before they hit the stores. The next batch is looking the same and scheduled to arrive mid to late May.
Then they tell me about a new mill that they have no info about. It is called the CT133 http://busybeetools.ca/cgi-bin/product10?&NTDESC=ct133 but there is no info at all on the website. The only info is a listing the says "CT133 MILLING M/C MINI 110V MT3 CRAFTEX" and a price of $799 / $678. I assume that the second price is a sale price.
Has anyone heard anything about what the CT133???
I know that the CT129 is more in line with the size to the X3 so the CT133 is more then likely around the size of an X2 or Taig.
I'm a total noob when it comes to milling.
My plan is to get a small mill and use it manually to begin with. Once I'm ok with the basics, I may CNC it or move on to a larger mill.
