My local Lowes seems to be doing away with the Delta stuff as well.

Re: Bench Top Machines

If you need a small (foot square type stuff) leightweight, light duty cnc vertical mill or lathe, DeskCNC/IMService has some nice ones (check them out here, price list bout 1/2 down the page)

The average price is about $2500 bucks, but their lathes run from $775 to about $1500, and the mills run from $880 to about $4500.

I have a large CNC gantry machine (15' x 5' x 1' travel) i've been working on completing that i'll be installing a desk CNC controller in this summer, so, more on that story later...

What you making that needs that much travel for?
