We have been running our 4x8 VYTEK table for about 6 years now. We bought is used and it has been a great tool. I haven't interfered with some of the router wars, but feel the VYTEK was a formidable warrior. Last week we ordered a new 5x10 AXYZ and expect the truck tomorrow. I did lots of research and found router table quality from 'built in Korea' to 23K gold leafed. I feel the AXYZ is in the upper quadrant of quality and look forward to getting it wired up and thowing some chips. What I don't look forward to is moving truck sized pieces of equipment for 2 days while my workload is through the roof. I will post some pics after it is set.

and let the fun begin....you have to put it together?

they come pretty much assembled. I have to put a 3 phase converter on it since our shop only has 220.

Congratulations Jerry. Now, get busy and give Dan some competition.
At the Sign Business show in Long Beach, AXYZ had some very nice 3D samples at their booth. Does anyone know who did them? For a long time they simply exhibited flat, cut out samples - but at this show they were showing how their machine cut 3D. It was a welcomed change...and great samples on the wall, too.

I had mine for 10 years and still running great with barely a scratch on it.
Make sure you show some pieces...

Congratulations on the pruchase of your new router Jerry! I look forward to see the work you turn out with your new baby.
