You asked how I found out about the new one, and they just told me over the phone when I called to order the machine. I've noticed there is no mention of it on their web site. We will find out this week. Hope it is the right one.

Contained in the demo video of the power pro announcment, a Mark V with what appear to be new end castings etc. that allow tipping to vertical in Both directions similar to a Mark 7.
We are about to see what they look like up close! AREN'T WE BSTADTLER!!!:rolleyes:

I believe jpg is trying to suggest that we are all dying to see detailed photographs of this new gem of a machine. Those of use with older machines are curious. What do the new end castings look like and how do they lock in vertical position.
I am also anxious to see the main table perform with the unit vertical on the the left side. In other words, is the carriage also modified?

Why doesn't someone just call SS and ask?
