I got the " Guarded" :-X??? Ok to order the grizzly SX3. as I stated in the Mill forum i chose the SX3 over the new SX4 due to size and cost.
But... I did like the idea of the power head on the Z axis head. Is there any reason i couldn't put a Motor in the handle of the z axis hand wheel ? it didn't seem to require too much power to rais it ( it lowers a lot easier) it is low geared to minimize required stregnth but it takes a lot of cranking...a motor would be " a good thing"
I won't get mine for about 6 weeks and I was wondering if anyone thinks this might work using an 18 volt drill motor or something similar.
Just wondering...
