pmuury please do make the memory cards some of the older machines are getting prohibitively expensive because Haas is starting to dicontiniue parts for the pre-brushless machines (and there are alot of them out there.
sooner or later there are going to be alot of people doing aftermarket upgrades for these machines. Lets face it they own 85% of the market and for the most part shops tend to buy newer machines (less headache) and most shops don't have cross trained, break the mold geniuse level freeks runing them (like all the great people here! ) So my point is there is going to be ALOT of these machines hitting the market that are older and not factory supported any longer (perfect for us hobbiest). and all of em will need some sort of spare replacement parts/upgrades ect....
Hell you can already get the original tupperware style HAAS for under 10k easy and alot of these are very clean (but every haas salesperson says they are very unreliable and junk) If this were so that would have ended their machinery building rise to 85% market share wouldnt it?
just my 2.5 cents
thanks
