How to Choose Your First Cabbing Machine
Buying your first cabbing machine can be confusing. Six-inch or eight-inch wheels? What about a compact four-inch machine? Plated, sintered or resin-bond wheels? How important are wheel spacing, shaft length, replacement parts and a trim saw?
This two-page guide walks through the practical things to consider before buying a cabbing machine, including machine size, construction, water systems, wheel options, maintenance, future flexibility and the difference between a separate trim saw and a saw attachment.
It also includes a short list of established manufacturers to help you begin your own research.
The goal isn’t to tell you which machine to buy. It’s to help you understand the questions worth asking before you buy one.
