Keep on bringing it.
Don't seem to see a "series" on the Rikon site. They only list the 70-500. Maybe the others are discontinued?

Yep. That's the one I've got. Still wonder what they mean by "series"?

LOL! I'll leave that to you guys.
BTW, for you web-savvy gurus...
This is being presented in a simple HTML table format. It's OK but not ideal. If anyone is aware of an embedded spreadsheet format that works with all browsers I'd be glad to hear of it. I tried one or two but had problems with consistency in both Firefox and IE. I don't want to exclude users of Firefox, Mac Safari, etc.

I noticed you only included a stubby 750, but I'm pretty sure they have three models.

When it comes to your work, take the same time and effort to present it, as you did to make it.
Question everything, nobody has it all figured out perfectly.

I also thought they had more than one model and was surprised to only see the S750 on their website.
According to their "Place an Order" page the S1000 has been discontinued in favor of the S750. On that same page they do mention an S600 but it's not mentioned anywhere else on their site.
Quote:
The F600 is our fixed bed, shortbed 24" lathe. It shares most parts with the S750 but has a more traditional bed cast into the machine base. If you are interested in this machine please contact us. The price with electronics and stand identical to the S750 is $3795.00 + shipping.
It sounds like it's still available by request so perhaps it should be included. Maybe I'll email them for specs rather than assume it's "exactly" identical to the S750.
Do ya think if I tell them I'm also doing reviews they'd send me one gratis?
I didn't think so.
