Hi. I have been looking at buying the pro4828. But suddenly a unused pro4828 the previous version was listed fir sale close to where I live.
I have read a great deal about ball screws vs rack. I have been making clocks from vinyl records on a stepcraft. So my main concern is how good do a pro4828 deal with small bits like 0.6mm and cutting small details. Also v carving letter and reliefs.
So far, I've been impressed. I haven't gone as far as .6mm but i used a 1/16 ballnose on a 3d carve and it came out perfect. Barely any sanding. I'm using a pro4896.
I used the previous version pro to do guitar fretboard inlays with a .010" bit, it worked great. (I also use a .020" (.6 mm)) for roughing - it is orders of magnitude more robust than than the .010"!
I'd post a picture, but the forums are acting funny right now.
