I bought the larger one for about $70, I think, on sale a few years
ago. Well, my wife bought it for me for Christmas one year. ;') I told
her what she was getting me, we do that sometimes for each other. It's
7.5x12 travel, for the price it made sense.

There was an article in Nuts N Volts magazine a few years ago on
converting these mill/drill tables to CNC control. That's my plan, who
knows when I'll get time. Heck, I haven't even gotten a chance to test
out that Epson 800 with Future floor polish.
