    Shop Task 17-20 XMTC (New to me)

    Good morning

    I just purchased a used Shop Task 17-20 XMTC. Sweet machine. Just need to know if anyone has one that is up and running. As you can see it was a CNC machine and PO removed components.Also want to upgrade to 3 phase motors. Been in touch with Shopmaster and they are great help.. Just would like to see one that is working..
    Thanks in advance

    Fishriver,
    That is the same as my first Shoptask- not too far away on the serial # either. I have since upgraded 3 times and now have the Mill Turn. I did a ton of work on my Shoptask for the first 10 years- it probably paid for itself 50 times over. BTW, all those machines came stock with the CNC mounts, so that may not be an indication that it was ever equipped for CNC. The white color was always a pain to keep clean, so if you are into appearance, check out this old picture.
