Not yet, still trying to find a new shop location I'm completely out of room.

I feel your pain... I am in the same situation space wise. How did your comparison between this and other lathes like the Tormach SL15 go? I was seriously considering the Tormach and then I came across the Automate ones. I can't seem to find out much about the Automate on the web... either they are very new or there are not a lot of them out there.
