Wade, I'm glad it has worked out well for you.

At the Tormach Open House last week, I had a long talk with one of their technical support specialists. He had confided with me that, although they have several QC personnel at the manufacturing and assembly points, there are times when stuff slips through the cracks. Engineering changes will be made only to have manufacturing revert back to the old design. Unfortunately, when QC is checking a final assembled machine, they cannot determine if some process or assembly was done to spec. An example of a hidden defect was my discovering on the cabinet fan motor and the coolant pump motor, the wires were just twisted and taped.

I can't help wondering how many other machines have the "three point contact" problem. It might explain some of the problems with my 770.
