Was mine supposed to have 3? And yes...I know that a real machinist would just go ahead and make 3 himself Dongizmo Super Moderator Joined:  Tue Dec 19th, 2006 Location:  Warren, MI, USA Posts:  211 Status:  Offline Mana:   Posted: Sat Jan 3rd, 2009 12:26 am   Quote     Reply   The machines normally come with 2, the vendor does put 3 in the crate sometimes to confuse us. I think that is one of they ways the manufacturer kept the price down. (+ it makes it a good reason to put a power feed on the left side) Don Canyonman Member Joined:  Thu Jan 4th, 2007 Location:  Enid, Oklahoma USA Posts:  6 Status:  Offline Mana:   Posted: Sat Sep 5th, 2009 06:18 pm   Quote     Reply   Yes my friend. Mine came with 3. Also if you want to put a power feed on the left side, get with Tech Support. There is one feed that tucks neatly up under the table. So unless you have it on a very narrow pedestal the "Regular" units restrict your table movements when they run into the base.
