How many cw machines are there?

[optionman]

does anyone have a good estimate of how many machines are out in the public's hands? i assume a large percentage of buyers/users use this forum, just trying to figure out the overall size of the cw community.

P.S. still waiting for replacement flexshaft assembly from LHR. anxious to carve again.

I had read somewhere that the number was over 14,000
