Hey beardsleyskip (Skip Beardsley?),

You might find a better value looking at the used market.  You can possibly be looking at a used Powermatic, Vicmarc or even a Stubby.  Look at the local woodworking and woodturning clubs, Craig's List, Facebook Marketplace and OfferUp.  Also, I see on-line auctions here in San Diego that sometimes pop used woodworking equipment.

Where are you located?  (I have a used Stubby for sale, but will take the discussion off-line.  Just click on my name to get my email address)
