Closed at $710! Wow! I would have bid on it, but I didn't have any idea
how tall it was. If it is quite similar to a Bridgeport Series II in size, I'd sure
like to have it, but I know there is no way to fit it into my basement. I'd have
to either dig a pit or have a strategically placed hole through the kitchen floor.
Neither sounds real good!
