Another $150 will get you this, and you would NEVER need another machine, absolute best for the $

$1300 is actually a small investment on the potential returns you could make with one of these. VERY small.
Even if you're only doing parts for yourself!

Hmm, I do like the look of this. I had planned to buy something, as it would be handy to have. I even have a decent area to put it.

I would not buy large equipment like this from HF, I have had a few of their drill presses and the bearing wear out very quickly... I plan to take one of them apart and see what can be done with the bearings...

I have read thru grizzly before and did like the combo machines. I hate to buy something I will outgrow, but you have to start somewhere...

Only issue is I would have to keep it a secret, everyone I know would want me to make stuff for them!
