Hi Doddy,
Thanks for the information. The specified cross travel is 120mm, which is really small. You are probably correct in that the head to spindle distance limits the travel. Although that is specified as 200mm and with a table width of 160mm, this seems enough to allow more than 120mm of travel. I'm surprised that they have not modified this yet, as there have been quite a few comments about the limited travel. Were it not for this, I would be keener to buy one. But the price is attactive compared to Syil and Skyfire machines, which have somewhat more cross travel.
Regards
David.
