Thanks for the excellent videos!

My current project is building a complete new table from scratch with ball slides and more travel. The table and saddle in this video are now is listed on Ebay. Just drop it on your X2 and you're ready to rock.

[russtuff]

what kind of travel to you expect to obtain over the stock form?

i'm planning on picking up an X3 myself.... or an SX3. i can't decide if I really need the "S".

[Simpsons36]

My new table will have 15.5 X and 6.3 Y Another .8" is available in a pinch by letting the wipers go past the rail ends.

Stock X3 is listed at Grizzly as 15.875 and 5.75

[russtuff]

that is quite good for an X2. have you had a chance to turn any steel?

[Simpsons36]

Just posted the final video in this series showing the 4th axis cutting and hard tapping steel.

Table X travel increased now to 16.4"
