I would like some suggestions as to which vertical Knee mill would be the
best to buy for a model shop in a small consumer product development firm.
We would like about a 9 X 50 powered table, 3 axis digital readout, and
variable speed spindle. Most of our work is on plastics, although we do
occasional aluminum and steel milling as well. The work is not constant
production. We would like to spend < 6K with shipping.
In our other model shop (different location) we have an old Bridgeport; a
bit used but OK. This time we would consider a new machine. Any
suggestions - Enco looks good. - Grizzly seems to have more size / same
kind of cost, my guess is that they are not as good quality. Seems to be a
lot out there, the choices are many.
Thanks for your help.
