Mill/Drill Selection

Filed under: Metalworking,Random and Pleasing — jet @ 22:10

After updating the spreadsheet (see the previous entry), I’m thinking the Industrial Hobbies unit is the one I’m after. I can’t afford CNC just yet, but the base machine looks really good.

I’m going to cheap out and try and use it as a general purpose drill press as well. Most of my recent drilling required a bit more accuracy than my Sears drill press was capable of providing. If setup time starts being a problem I can always drop $100 on a cheapo import from HF or Grizzly.
