Got the rig today (when Amazon says two-day shipping, they mean it). It seems to be all metal, except for the pulley cover, as far as I can see.
Haven't tried it out, and probably won't until the weather cools down a bit and I can get out to the shop. It weighs a little under 12 lb. The plate seems to be about 8"X 10", and the height is about 12". Very compact.
Now, to the manual, and it is really a hoot. The translation is almost impossible to understand. Fortunately, it has illustrations. Here's an example: "C:Adjust Rev: Cut the power supply, open the headstock cover, will spread to take by hand at two pagoda wheel a slot a dishs move, making pagoda wheel been last to the fit file."
I copied every word exactly as it is written, even the word "dishs". Go figure!!
