Kip that picture isn't an X3 SX3 or KX3, it's a special machine made for JET in the US with a sliding Y axis.

I still don't have a vested interest in the KX mills, I worked on them but don't sell them, the quoted post from Helmsworthlad was for the X3 which has actually been discontinued since the appearance of the KX series.
That part of ARC's website hasn't been updated but I am thinking about resurecting the kits as I'm getting about 2 enquiries a month.

I didn't realise that you had to be completely neutral to post on this site, after all I have seen many pointers to people making and selling things.

I haven't hid behind anything, I made it clear I worked with both Seig and ARC, perhaps that has upset some ? I don't know.

The OP, posted asking for advise, all he got to start with was abuse.
If there as anyone else on this group who can truthfully answer with practical experiance of what the poster asked then by all means let him post.
So far I haven't seen any, I was loath to at first because of my links, I even said I could be accused of being biast and instaed of saying how good / bad what features etc I posted actual parts made on one.
