It's big enough for a full-blown Bridgeport head, there are a few around the country, just got to find one.
We also have a 2ES which is going now that the Beaver is within sight of the workshop door, but we looked a long time for an A&S head but never found one.

You mean that you want this head?

I ended up with the Bridgeport head solution which is very flexible. The factory head is more robust but I couldn't find one.
