Ordered a GO698, received a GO698. Since it is discontinued, we were wondering if I might get the white GO733. It's not a PM 3520, but I
could have two of these for the price of one of those
217590
and it's a big step up from where I was (see photo below) (don't look Mr. K - I'll clean the shop real soon).
217592
Mr. Hardy, I got the 4x6 in before I bolted the legs on like you said, but I can't get it to spin around. I'll shim it up when I get it to it's final location.
I had to take the headstock and tailstock off because Mrs. Herzberg was having trouble lifting the bed onto the legs. She would have been okay except she was trying to wrangle that 4x6 in between the legs with her other hand. Anyway, I set the headstock down on my finger and got a bruise under the nail, but otherwise no casualties and it really helped her out, I think.
So this is my triple gloat, or "how I spent the insurance money, dear." I gloated a little about the bandsaw when it came in on the general woodworking forum, but it was all part of the plan.

Now I won't be able to blame the tools for my poor results.
