    Shit, forgot to add cost of PC/laptop of course.

    I bought mine for school and never really used it as such; has a nice Ryzen CPU so factor in another $500-1,000 for costs.

    My recommendation would be to go straight for the Pro model. It was in my budget to get it, but not feasible to "work around" it as I'm trying to be conscious of my surroundings when this thing is working.

    Would like to keep room in the garage for when the wife parks, or when the LC gets work done on it.

    I need to replace my valve cover gasket and it keeps raining out here :bananadead:

    Oh yeah it is. Perfect setup. Im collecting crap at an alarming rate for this "shop" that I don't have yet but can’t pass up a free $2500 Koehler cast iron urinal!

    I was gonna run bootcamp which I've used in the past but I remember it being a pain in the ass to switch back and forth. Idk what virtual box is. Is that free or software you purchase?

    It has a pretty large range of motion. It seems like the belt is supposed to be in constant tension. The handle engages the larger pulley with this drive wheel setup

    Virtual box is free software and the you just run windows on a machine that you make in it. Just tell it what resources you want to allocate and whatnot. Or you can download my windows XP virtual machine if you want, probably need to install a newer version of windows tho for the Holley software

    I have the Crossfire Pro. Started with nothing. Have about 8k in mine. Magnetic break away machine torch added $400 to it. Also had to wire in sub panel with meter to separate power usage from rest of building.

    Cool. Thanks! I was just checking out the virtual box site. prob give it a try. May just use my macbook air for that alone since it is basically worthless other than to type shit on and store a pic or two.

    You'll notice the Pro doesn't have an issue with deflection (caused by a longer length table) due to the dual gantry setup.

    A few things also come standard, think the biggest one was the Z Axis (torch height control) whereas it was an option for mine.

    Thats weird... you don't happen to have the model number available do you?

    PXL_20230118_041700778.MP.jpgthis arm looks like it's installed 180degrees out or something. It shouldn't be that close to the engine pulley.


    MASSIVE EDIT I miss interpreted that last photo, that arm with the hard rubber wheel is what is attached to the handle you squeeze right? And is it one or 2 handles you squeeze
