I'm looking for a machine to cut hardwood (1"thick) parts up to about 42" long. I've checked out ShopBot, Techno, Kellig, Multicam, ShopSabre, etc. I keep coming back to the Laguna since it seems like the best value for the money. For about $11k, I get a 2hp spindle, 4'x4' table, ball screw, etc. I can't seem to match that with anyone else. I like Techno since they are local, but again it's more money. Anyone have experience with the Laguna Swift? Any other recommendations? Much thanks.
