Just ordered my g0750g yesterday. Thanks for the pics, I now know exactly how I'm going to maneuver my lathe into place. Question on the base mounting holes- are they through drilled into the cabinet so that the nut is installed through the cabinet door, or is there a gap between the base bottom and the cabinet bottom surface? Another question I have is that my space is limited in that I need to place the lathe fairly close to the wall. Given this, would it be more prudent to use mounting pads instead of bolting it down? What is the likelyhood that I will need access to the back after its installed?
Matt, I looked very hard at the PM1236 but in the end my Grizzly loyalty won out(lived in Bellingham WA and been buying Grizzly for 20+years). However Grizzly does not offer a foot brake for any 12x36 models. Would you consider selling a "brake kit"?
