    Thank you for the offer of waste oil. I believe I should have plenty though. The tank is about 750 gallons. Where did you get your crucible from? The waste oil doesn't have as high of a burning temperature as propane does but it does offer significantly greater thermal energy. What do you have...

    Does anyone have a: Grizzly G0619, Seig SX3, Shop Fox M1111 or a Busy Bee CX611

    I haven't had any experience with the 611. But I did ask about them a little while ago and was told they use the same motor as the knee mill they sell, just running on 110V. As for the price, $2999.00 will be the regular price. All of the prices are advertised as sales prices but haven't moved...

    Thank you! When I get it all figured out I will definitely share pictures. I've just moved into the country on a golf course. My landlord owns the golf course and has offered me the waste oil from the maintenance machines. I'm excited. My biggest obstacle at the moment is the crucible to hold...

    My unit does accept the spool gun. But the price of the spool gun and a new bottle for straight argon is out of my budget currently. Thank you for the suggestion, I will definitely keep that in mind!

    Yes the CX600 is identical to the Grizzly G0704. If you look in the 2 manuals, https://cdn0.grizzly.com/manuals/g0704_m.pdf https://www.busybeetools.com/content/product_manuals/CX600.pdf, at the botttom where the parts diagrams are, even the item number and parts are the same.

    Thank you! Unfortunately back in October I had to move and was not able to bring my furnace with me. I'm planning on doing a larger one this time that is capable of melting steel running on waste oil. It is going to be a challenge but I think I can do it. How big would you want your blanks to be?

    As much as I like my machine, the warranty is almost a necessity with craftex brand tools. When I say minor issues, I ment minor as in Busybee didn't have any issues resolving the issue. My speed controller has gone on it twice and the tach sensor for the rpm readout doesn't always work. Every...

    Hey Kelly! I also have the CX600 like John. Aside from a few minor issues with mine, I have been pleasantly surprised. Any issues that arose, Busybee took care of promptly. If you do end up in Calgary at Busybee, look for John, he has been a pleasure to deal with and offers a fair bit of...
