I've looked at CNC tables over the last year and a half, but there is no way I could justify that kind of $$$ for one. I looked at the 2x2 torchmate growth series, but it was out of my price range and 2x2 was too small.
I wondered the same Sean but they are charging not what it is worth but for what it can bring in for the owner ($). Many industries do that with equipment and parts. It will continue to happen till enough people QUIT paying so much. then they may get reasonable, but I doubt it. Everlast needs to make one available for $3500 to $4K complete or as a kit and then watch Torchmate (Lincoln) scramble to lower prices.
