I think mine is about 12-13" for x, 4.5-5" for y, and a tops of maybe 10" for 
z, and basically unlimited degrees for the a axis, a small 4" rotary table I 
intend to hob some gears and such with.  Or drill an index plate for the 
lathe spindle as I intend to control it too at some point, for thread cutting 
at any pitch, and contoured turnings.  For thread cutting, you have to know 
where the spindle is of course.
