    Lightbulb Taig Vendor Recomendations?

    Hey guys, I am looking to select a vendor for a Taig mill as this seems to be the best option. Problem is that the Vendors' websites are poorly designed and the information is hard to find! Not really good for a first impression.

    I think...

    I think his name is Nick Carter if I am not mistaken. He is a seller or I dunno what but I know he sells the Taig machines. He is also a member of the Airgun forums that I frequent and he seems to be well regarded there as well. I would try to contact him if I were interested in a Taig. They sure seem like good machines but they are pretty small... peace

    I bought a Taig lathe from him many years ago. He seems like a good guy.

    Another shout out for www.cartertools.com he's the nicest guy to deal with, and VERY fair shipping as well.

    He's also not pushy either so no pressure but will help with any questions you have.

    I bought mine from carter as well. His price is good and he's a nice guy. His site is also a good resource. It's setup very simplistically but it also becomes very functional in regards to searching for information.

    Nick Carter is a great Taig seller. He's the guy I give my Taig money to . No one has done more for the Taig community than Nick.

    I bought my 2019ER CNC ready from Nick. I had it setup for manual until I was ready to CNC it. Nick was helpful getting the CNC ready version with manual handles together and ordered from Taig.

    Check out all the websites of Taig users on his site.

    Also, might want to join his yahoo group.

    Do you know where can I get catalog for Taig spindle? I have seen some various Taig spindle products in a catalog, but I could not find anymore. Let me know if you know the links.
