Looks like you have been making some dust. So what do you think of the machine so far? What kind of rapids and cutting speeds are you able to get? How heavy do you really think this machine is? Doesn't look like it would weigh 700lbs. Weight is the biggest thing holding me back right now as I don't have room for a engine hoist where I want it to go. It would have to go through a 36" door on edge.
Our machine is the 2x4 and the frame without all the motors and related stuff is around 450 lbs., if I recall, and I borrowed two piano dollies from church to roll it into our shop from the driveway. Each piano dolly is rated for 900 lbs. I don't know why you couldn't stand the frame on edge and do the same thing.

We love the machine - very solid. No doubt it'll cut as fast as the tools and materials will allow - and it is heavy. Nate can give you the actual weights. Ours came in with a shipping weight over 700 lbs but that included dunnage. You'll likely have to disassemble the cross head if you want to carry through a door and even then it'll be a hefty move so bring a few good friends when you do it. Recommend you start prepping the area now with a base or stand because you'll want a place to drop it as soon as you get it close. Good Luck
We have a fair bit of changes underway. The proximity switch mounting is going to be addressed shortly. We are working on redesigning the switches to mount perpendicular to the axis and be located in a spot where they can never be crushed.
Should have some more info for you shortly.
