Just put my order in for a new A3 31. Got the spiral cutter block, handwheel and digital readout, and the roller carriage and lift bar. With shipping... just over $5100...lift gate delivery included in that price was $509. Pricey little devil!
I dealt with the Sacramento sales office. Nice folks but...I had to check their pricing...I went online and checked pricing and the online price was $45 cheaper then what the salesman was offering...plus the online shipping was $200 less then what he quoted!!! So buyer beware...if you are buying check the website!! Should see the machine sometime in February.

Congratulations Jim,

From what I read it's a very popular and well liked machine. I'm sure you'll love it.

Hi Jim,

I got mine about a year ago just before the new models came out. You wont be disappointed. The digital readout is a must have. Did you get the byrd head (I did) or did you go with the new hammer silent power cutter head?

You will like your machine Jim, very good quality machine and you outfitted it right. FYI there is no blade adjustment on the A#-31 with straight knives, they are self indexed.
