Build:
4x4 Avid Pro,
Centroid Acorn or Oak, (haven't decided)
Clearpath servos,
GMT spindle...
So your basing your decision on a couple of bad reviews, maybe 4 or 5 total? The one reviewer sent his back for a full refund, and if you ask he will tell you all the issues he had. I have had mine for over a year and no problems. The Saturn 2 is a welded steel frame machine as opposed to one built from aluminum bolted together which will never be as solid as steel,
Yet others who have never posted here may be happy with their FLA machines, who knows?
Nothing wrong with Avid / CNCRP at all, just wanted you to know all is not doom and gloom.
