Re: new fullsize CNC kneemill, not a bad price

Guys,

The machine pictured is identical to a popular "generic" knee mill
sold to others to fit the control of their choice. It's been
marketed by Hurco, Dynapath, Webb, among others. The machine is on
the large side compared to the B'port type clones. When fitted with
a control, etc these mills retailed in the $25 to $40K range.

I wonder if the there's a zero missing in the quoted price?
