FT: Flex 3401

**The Critic** · 10-14-2013, 03:45 PM

Hey guys,

I recently bought a Rupes 21 which is why I am interested in getting rid of my Flex 3401.

I only used this machine a couple of times over the last few years, and it does have a brand-new LC changeable backing plate system.

I would like to trade for a Flex 3403 rotary. There are some other items that I can include in the deal.

Thanks.

Edit - I would also be interested in (and would actually prefer) a trade for the PE14 on mutually agreed terms.

sorry to hijack your thread, but how do you like the rupes v. the flex ?

Are you sure you want the Flex 3403 VRG Rotary ?
It does not have a Soft Start and the lowest speed is 1,100 rpm.

My new Rupes comes this Fri, but I was able to try out another forum member`s Rupes 21 and I was thoroughly impressed with the lack of vibration (compared to the Flex).

Hmm that`s a good point. I knew about the rpms but I forgot about the lack of a soft start. I have updated my original post. Thx.
