Oh Jon, I know what you mean. I just got a flier from Harvey Machine
in Minneapolis, MN. They have TWO Leblond Regals with Ge-550's,
asking $2500 each. (19 x 54 inches)They have servos and ball screws,
the hydrashift speed changer and even come with the Aloris quick
change toolpasts. These are REAL tools at a hobby price...drool,
drool, drool.

Sure wish I had the room, time and money for one of them.

Best Regards,
Fred Smith
