Rick, the problem is, like I mentioned above and then Ken emphasised, although you have identified that this is the type of work you would like to do, it is highly likely your next project will be different.
Owning an X2, I can say that with some thought the size of those piece can be done on an X2 but if you buy one, you WILL want and wish you had got an X3 later down the line! I knew that when I purchased mine BUT that being said the X2 was the price I could afford for a mill. If I hadn`t purchased my X2 second hand off Matt on here at a good price, I`d still be waiting and saving for an X3 now over a year on. My point is, buy an X3 - for the price they are a great size and I`ve seen a lot of excellent work done on them. If you know you can`t afford an X3, then the X2 is a great mill for the money - but you`ll always be wanting a little more!!
Only my opinion of course - give my X2 mill to someone who knows what they are doing and they could do a hell of a lot more than me!!
