Just got done talkin' with a customer..........big(ish) order(s) of small milled parts.................I may try to contact the guy that bought my Mini and see if I could buy it back from him..........I also saw a S500 Speedio for sale the last month or so. Clean low hour unit(under 100hrs), but looks to have sold. Price seemed OK when comparing it to a Haas Mini or DT machine. I don't really want to buy new, but?????...........and I really don't want a Haas, but a Mini would fit the bill for these parts..............never looked at a DT or a DM unit....................wadda they like compared to a Mini? Tool changer would be nicer(I think)...........Are they built on the same iron?
From all I've seen and heard, a Speedio would be the cat's meow. Fast, accurate, and not a Haas. The 700 is only few bucks more than the 5....................Anyone got a nice gently used one, cheap, lying in the corner they want to sell to me?
Oh, and what ever I buy needs to have a small footprint. I just don't have the room or I'd just get another full size mill.( And why I'm looking at a S500 and not the 7....................)
