The mill I am looking at is the Smithy BX288 and the other one with the power xyz feeds (not their cnc one). Anyone use or see the Smithy's?

John taylor from shoptask is a thief that will not stand behind his product. My machine had a cracked mill swing arm and sand in the spindle gear box. It had a leak in the spindle gearbox because they tried to arc weld a casting flaw at the bottom of the gearbox. The ground the weld away and warped the bottom of the casting and then sold it to me. He will not replace it and says I did it. The machine has never run because of all the problems I have had. This man is not to be trusted. He sent me a replacement spindle gearbox that they painted over the cracks which made it no good. I found the cracks after I bead blasted the casting. He accused me of damaging it. But it was machined after the crack was there .
