Geoff, When you say a Syil X4 do you mean a manual machine to convert or a CNC mill.

The reason I ask is that that Syil are the whores of the machine market and pitch their products on unsuspecting buyers.

For a start the Syil X4 is what everyone else knows as the SX3, the SX4 is a massive machine which they don't carry. At the moment only Axminster carries this model. http://www.axminster.co.uk/axminster...l-drill-505107

Compare the spec of this one to the Syil so called X4

Then compare the nearly identical spec of the SX3 from ARC to the offering from Syil and they are virtually identical.
