hi guys, I'm gearing up (lol) for my first mill....

been doing the research crawling through the threads here,

I have been looking at all the most frequent names

Warco, Arc, Chester, Amadeal, Axminster, toolco...

will have to be a bench mill as i have to get it into my cellar shop & im pretty settled on induction motor & belt driven (similar traits i prefer in my other machines)

i had found what i thought ticked my boxes on Toolco & Warco, but emails indicate they have no new stock coming soon to toolco & warco are out of stock & i understand i just need to pre order and wait as they pre sell shipments... the WM16B was my fave

i did like the Seig SX2.7 (& the L) the tapping feature appeals (though i have a perfectly good tapping head) but its pushing cost & its more than likely i need to pay using paypal which Arc dont accept

i had just resigned myself to wait, but today browsing i landed on SPG by pure chance, i have not come across before... now being a wood monkey & out of my element thats not at all surprising so i thought i would ask here if they are well known?
