Is this it?

No, that was a machine that they imported several years ago. The new Stinger is a VERY robust tabletop router built right in Calhoun Georgia. It's all new (well other than being scaled down from it's big brother the well proven Cobra) and ready to storm the market once it's revealed in Columbia SC May 14/15.

Jim was kind enough to give me a sneak peek and he knows my feelings and my predictions for sales in the first year. The Stinger looks like a CAMaster Cobra or Pro that had its growth stunted. This little machine is going to turn the tabletop CNC world upside down. In my eyes, there is not a single machine on the market that will come close to the ridgid construction that went into this machine.
Forget all those little 24 by 24 units that claim this that and the other thing. For those who know me, I rarely recommend one piece of equipment over the other, however, if I had to endorse something from just a photo, I would be happy to put my name on a Stinger!
Can't wait for the big reveal!

if you looked and added up all the quality level of every tabletop on the market then one would have to take that and double it just to get close to the quality of this router!! i make that staement boldly and with confidence!!

Just from the photos and the short video I have seen I will second what Jim has just said.
I am seriously considering putting my CNC build on hold and buying one of these and then continuing my custom build on top of this machine!
I am blown away buy this rugged little machine.

For what? The unveiling of the Stinger?
I may just want to be there...
