Description:
If you think something like a Royal KMM is large, then this SG3 is on another level. This thing is massive and is built like a tank, weighs about the same as one too.
For such a large machine though it is surprisingly easy to type on. I bought this one on eBay, and the seller actually shipped it with the carriage removed, which was a pleasant surprise.
