SO just got the 2015 catalog.

Here is what I see.
Lathes
1. G4003G with round column milling attachment $3995
2. New 12x27 lathe with mini-mill attachment G0773 $2895 (ouch, that is pretty expensive for a machine with a very limited QCGB, and no power cross-feed).
3. New 13x40 lathe G0782 for $4300 (looks like the Eisen 1440E), D1-4 spindle
4. New 14x40 lathe G0776 for $4600 (looks like the G0750 QCGB and G0709 motor controls), D1-4 spindle, DRO
5. New 18x60 lathe
6. New 22x60 lathe
7. South Bend Heavy 10 (this is on their website for the last month)

Mills
1. New mini drill with BLDC motor
2. New 8x28 square column mill G0795 $1595... looks like a baby version of the G0761, on face value a solid step-up from the venerable Sieg X-3 (G0619)... features tapping.
3. Update to the G0757 9x39 horizontal/vertical (called G0757Z) which adds DRO and VFD $6495

Horizontal bandsaws: maybe I didn't notice this before, but most of the larger bandsaws say MADE IN TAIWAN

Motorized ring roll pipe bender $2995. 1-1/8" tube, 1-9/16"-1/16" square , 5/8" solid bar. Looks exactly like this GMC offering: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-GMC-PRB-30HV-1-1-2-x-3-16-POWER-RING-AND-ANGLE-ROLL-BENDER-/121467261797

Overall, the prices seem mostly unchanged from 2014 with a few exceptions that I noticed (G4003G up but $45, G4002 up by $100, g0750G up $200, g0759 up $45, G0619 up $45, G0755 up $145, G0762 DOWN $100). Anybody want me to check the price of something, go ahead and ask.

Does that new 13x40 have a norton secondary gearbox (threading)? And does it say if it's from China or Taiwan? Thanks.
 
The 13x40 QCGB and motor controls look similar to this PM 1440 TS ( and the Eisen 1440E):

The only difference is on the Grizzly, the two motor control knobs are on the same drive shaft. The Grizzly has the two piece base like the Eisen (not the one piece cast iron base like the PM). The grizzly has a single speed motor, so it does not have the motor speed selector switch like the Eisen does on the left hand base.

It does not say "Made in Taiwan", and it is also "only" $4300, which tells me it is made in China.

For comparison, both the Eisen and the PM are made in Taiwan, and they sell for $7500-8000.

Would you mind checking the following for me:

G4000 (currently $1075)
G0768 (currently $1295)
G0602 (currently $1250)

I'm trying to get an idea if I can wait a little while before making a lathe purchase or if I need to jump on it now. Thanks in advance!

G4000 (currently $1075) price cut to $995
G0768 (currently $1295) price cut to $995
G0602 (currently $1250) no change

Shipping prices are unchanged for the above three
 
tmarks11 thanks for posting some 2015 prices as i have not recieved any new catalogs yet . I put my order in before the increase and saved some money.
 
I just downloaded the 2015 catalog in pdf.
 
I see the SB 10K has not gone down in price :(
I wonder if they are selling many? Looks like a beautiful machine.

Last I talked to a rep at Griz they sell quite a few, and I see them go in and out of availability fairly often.

As an owner of it's smaller brother I was trying to figure out how I could make one work for what I want to do but just can't get around the small spindle bore. :(

I still smile when I use my little SB and am very happy with the quality and accuracy it produces. It's big brother can only be better.
 
i just got my new master catalog ... the little 8inch southbend lathe is shown at a steeply discounted and discontinued price
