Hello everyone.
Just bought a very slightly used cnc KX3 little machine shop mill from a Texan, and getting it freighted to me. Claimed to be used for light R&D less than 20 hours from a reputable business in the cnc community who makes, and retails a quality product.
Only thing wrong with it was some slight sheet metal damage on the chip collector tray (from shipping), which is going to be removed any ways!
I've rat holed some cash away for tooling, mostly tormach quick change tooling. When they say your going to spend as much on tooling, as the mill costs, its true, but it will be so sweet! Will be working lots of overtime to grow the tooling collection and capabilities of this little mill for sure.
The mill doesn't include a stand, so i will be keeping my eyes open for one. I've found a few, specifically grizzly but ill address that in the next post.
Just kicking this off as a new thread, and long term build with mods to come.
If any other KX3 owners or X3 owners are out there, feel free to say hello!
