What a great way to start the new year!

I like the machine but I wish the controller was better. I would like to have one and put a Centroid controller on it. So much more flexibility and expansion options.

Hey random question, but what is that reel you use to hold up the flex DC hose above the machine? I just got an IS408 and am struggling to figure out how to manage my DC hose. Thanks!

That is an adjustable tool balancer. I think it is 15lbs. I got it on Amazon… not sure if it is still in stock. Reelcraft TB 15 Spring... www.amazon.com/dp/B003XJ4TNO?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I’m looking at the IS-M series and coming from a CNC machinist background. Right off the bat I’m missing my milling interface-feed/rapid/spindle override knobs, MDI, 3D simulation at the machine, etc. You mention that you will be doing some aluminum milling and you obviously have experience as a machinist. Will you miss these things? Cheers.
