If the factory is still behind and will not be shipping until the beginning of next month will play directly into whether or not to cancel the back-order and pick a different in stock model. The wood lathes don't have a lot of overlap so changing models means accepting a different capacity. I can't speak for others but that's something I spent time deciding what's right for what I want and changing models will require some thought.
