I am progressing in my skills (and need for more tools) and am looking to buy a 10" rotary table (for $500) So I have two questions:
1.) I know these can get expensive and this deal has a (servo?) motor attached (as well as the crank handles) - I like the older heavy cast machinery and this has a label of MOORS rotary table. I have yet to examine the condition but if everything is in order, is this a proper price?
2.) my table is only 9.5" x 40" so clearly this will overhang the table... is this too big? I see the advantage of having a big table, so I am inclined to go big now than regret later.
I do appreciate this feedback... this will be my evolution into work I find is better on my mill, and too large for my lathe.
