The main differences between this model and the #3 model of the series is the saddle and knee construction.  The # 4 models have a wider saddle running on box style ways, while these # 3 models have traditional dovetail ways.  The column ways are also box ( or square) ways on the # 4 mills and the # 3 models have dovetail ways.  The heads and tables are the same on both.
