    Leading Edge Industrial Machines

    I ran accross this company rebuilding and converting sieg lathes and Mills into fully enclosed turnkey cnc machines. 4200 bucks doesn't sound like the worst price point for a plug and play lathe. Any thoughts?

    4200 for a 7x10 lathe seems like a lot of money to me. No tool changer, no ballscrews...no fun!

    I had the same thought, 4800 for a mini mill, no ballscrews same weak motor, but claims 9000 rpm even though the spindle bearing is rated for about 6500rpm for the CNC Mill HX8610 Vertical Machining Center HX8610vmc. looks like a converted machine in a pretty enclosure. I wonder how much the price will go up if he decides to add ballscrews and a better motor, might as well spend a little extra for an entry level tormach
