You better off getting a seperate 7x12 lathe and a x1 mill, those combo ones suck,also better going thru grizzly,better cust service,and they have all the replacement parts on hand

http://www.grizzly.com/products/Mini...-Machine/G8689 also commonly known as a x1 mill

http://www.grizzly.com/products/7-x-...al-Lathe/G8688 made by seig ,needs tweaking to be accurate,lots and lots of mods.
yes it's over double the amount, but well worth it.
