It looks like the HF micro mill, the X1 model. Not the more ubiquitous X2 mini mill. They look to have done a great job on it, but it's still pricey.

It's a dangerous gamble to post a link like that on a cnc hungry site like this.

BUILD YOUR OWN!!!! What you learn and save plus putting it together so you know all its features/quirks, the knowledge gained and self satisfaction is priceless. The best deal going is a HF minimiill, Ron Steeles plans (or if your a little skilled, do without the plans), a HobbyCNC kit w/ motors. A complete CNC machine with a real R8 collet for under $1000.00. That was my first machine and what I learned was that I could make a machine as good or better than anything out there for sale. (Except of course a machine with castings, like a knee mill.) The best part of CNC is making the machines! But yeah, I did see that machine and its nice. Based on a HF micro mill it looks like. the controller and servos look really well done. But there again, you could make one yourself for probably half of what theyre charging. Go for it!
