This tool requires certification for use.

Current Status 8-21-2016

I'm curious about the status of this tool. The owner is no longer an active member? It appears that someone was trying to fit a treadmill motor and PWM module. The Grizzly 0704 machines have a history of motor failure so fitting a treadmill motor makes sense but I wonder if any other problems were encountered? Any plans for this machine or any objection to my tinkering?

Thanks- Jim [email protected]
