>I had one a couple years back. Nothing but trouble. Service used to be great at Grizzly, but I guess they got too big for their britches. I gave mine away to a guy who had a machine shop and figured that if he had to he could rebuild the whole thing. Metal machinest's are sort of weird that way. I'm happy with my PM-2035 (or is it 3520?), 2 HF 1236's, and ugh, a Sears 15" vs that sucks sideways!!!
