i am looking at getting a table saw/router combo from grizzly. my question is the router table that comes with the saw, is to small to allow a router lift kit. are the axiom cnc sturdy enough to mill cast iron? have you guys had any experience with this type of milling? ty  |

Everything I've ever seen says "non-ferrous metal only"...because of the design of the table and spoil strips, a misting system would be out of the question.

There are after market Router table kits for table saws that will take a standard plate for a router lift.
Not very hard to install it on the Grizzly saw.

Even if you buy that saw, you can remove the Router section and replace it with a new one that will fit a router lift. I think they are available for less than $300

you are right, i am a little reluctant on buy that saw, because it is being sold on craigslist for $900 off retail price. the only thing is it was dropped out of a pick up truck while it was still packaged. so the owner just wants to get rid of it, he says there is just cosmetic damage. i may wait for one of grizzly tent sales and go then.

That could have some serious internal issues. I wouldn't want to take a chance on it.
Is that a 1023? I have a 690 myself

Yes it's a grizzly g1023rlwx, 5hp. Sucks to pass on it, but I do agree with you on the possible internal damage. I decided I'm going to wait and go to grizzlies tents out there having in May and see if I can pick one up for decent price.
