black and grey? i hope so.. .. RW says it a color machine on their order sight... but whatever lol we will .. the low volts may make it a little softer i imagine...
i gave the brass springer to my piercer bacuase i love the guy, he's cool as fuck and loves dot work so i was like here you go bro.
I am anxious to run the black I.D i ordered...
ill post a review...
The main reason i gave away the springer was because i didn't like the fall off vise and i didn't like the fact that a single screw was supporting the left and right tilt of the head unit... it moved to much.. i did however liked the quality and functionality of the motor and stroke as well as the price so i figured the solid head unit on the coil-like frame on the I.D. would be stable.... and suit the direct drive better...
I am also curious if the vise is the same? if so i will deal with it.. its not that bad...
I also have a prodigy on order with the larges stroke wheel coming as well.
yes same vice.
hmm. mine came with the vice not on machine.. i had to put it on. also there is a kind of capacitor on the motor maybe that regulates how it hits
Attachment 17205this is the part I'm referring to. let me also say it is not the exact same vice as the other models but it does come off.. also i am not going in shop today but if u all wood like i can post some pictures of what I'm talking about tomorrow. maybe do a side by side next to a brass rotary works.

Kinda lost me on this part Bro..The vice on all RW's are as tight as Submarine Windows.. so far I have never had an issue with the Vice..Am I the only one, or is there a problem with the vice..?
I agree with u skinmech.. also i believe the head unit is in fact support by 2 screws. I changed out the motor on mine yesterday and there is one screw that is visible and one that can only be seen if u take the motor off. Also if the visible screw is loose u may have some movement, just tighten it. But like i said im 95 % sure there is 2 screws i wish i was at shop to take pics of it. and yes the vices are great. one of mine the vice doesnt come off but the rest they do and they have the same functionality, they work great,
