Ian,

This is great news for you as well as Defeng. Slowly, albeit "very" slowly, the confidence to purchase a Defeng product grows.

I would almost compare the "wait" we all endure in the Dr's...

It appears this discussion is starting to head down a wrong turn and maybe better suited for a completely new thread about CAD/CAM etc?

Impy,

Would you share the cost of the retrofit for everything?

I think the better question is, "...how many people have paid in advance and know when they are going to get it regardless of production, development or other issues. Or at least have been...

Although I have not personally dropped any money in this whole ordeal, I am truly surprise how calm everyone is about this business.

In light of the earlier analogy about waiting a year later for...

That is great news!!! My confidence is slowly, although very slowly, growing in Defeng and Skyfire. If these units were stateside, I would easily pick an SVM-2 today.

What is current delivery...

Seriously 12k for a base CNC and further upgrades pushing the system to almost 20k?

For these prices, I could certainly look for a used HAAS or even purchase a base Tormach for 7k. Wow, and this...

In the same boat and pretty much the same type of parts/features.

I've weighed various options from EBAY CNC machines from China, to DIY, and now have come full circle to the complete CNC via...

Glad you've received good communication, but I'm only referring to the multitude of comments by others via this thread. So if you have some good feedback from Defeng, maybe that should help his...

I am under the same impression. Both the inconsistent communication and big body of water separating all of us has me very leery and cautious. More importantly we haven't even seen the post delivery...

Can or does anyone else besides louieatanza can share their experience or comments about their SkyFire CNC order?

Through this thread, it seems that there has been a number of orders placed but...

Lou, great update on the customs process. Thanks for sharing.

Come on Lou, would you hurry up and post some updates...just joking. Maybe strap a realtime GoPro to your head so we can all partake in the fun?

I second Daniellyall's comments above. Defeng, at this point, most of us are on "baited breath" or "waiting on the edge of our seats" to see Louie's unbiased update of your SVM machine.

SkyFire...

Louie,

What port did your shipment enter and would you share the broker name? Would be nice to have backup resources. It's especially helpful when you know someone that has had good experience...

What does every one think about he latest CNC product launched via KickStarter earlier in the week?

Pocket NC is the latest....

I just finally finished reading this post for the first time. I started reading at 9am and recently finished this afternoon around 6pm. I went from curious, to enlightened, to wanting to buy an SVM...
