    X3 at grizzly

    Hey, I just got my 2006 grizzly catolog and theres an x3 in there for $925.
    The spindle has 2 speeds, 0-2000 and 0-4000, I don't think I saw that before.

    Its not the super, but the regular one,
    travel on this one is:
    Y - 5.75
    X - 15.875
    Z - 14.875
    according to the catolog. It isnt on the website as far as my search went.

    I was just about to post the the same thing!
    I like the rpm they are stating: 4000rpm!

    On Sieg's website, one of the messages said Grizzly was going to start carrying the X3.

    I saw the mill in my catalog and got a bit excited. The price isn't to bad but I wasn't sure that the mill was an X3. The unit only weighs in at 372 shipping weight. In any event it does seem like it has a nice mix of features.

    With a shipping charge of $90 too. Looks like they are trying to push Lathemaster out of the X3 market.

    Lathemaster WILL be out of the X3 bussiness. A bussiness like Lathemaster cannot surrvive a head to head with Grizzly.

    I hav to say, that Grizzly customer support and parts replacement policies are second to none. Lathemaster could not afford to offer such service.

    You'd think they would have imported the super version instead of the regular one.
