    Tried to use it as a door stop but it feels a bit heavy.

    That machine will clip finger nails right back to the elbow. That looks to be a good solid mill. should do anything you want with the proper tooling. Moulds, fluting, Tooling for all sorts of projects. Imagination is all it takes.

    Dandy boat anchor (just don't try to pull it up).
    We need somebody/something to keep the government (cops and bureaucrats too) HONEST (by non government oversight).

    Every "freedom" (latitude) given to government is a loophole in the rule of law. Every loophole in the rule of law is another hole in our freedom. When they even obey the law that is. Too often government seems to feel itself above the law.

    We forgot to take out the trash in 2012, but 2016 was a charm! YESSS!

    In my shop there's a guy who uses the flat part to set his coffee cups. The rest of us use it for other stuff.

    Lol all good uses for the mill. Seriously imagination is the only limit to what you can do on that machine tool, well safely any way. Make another milling machine!!

    This has been sitting buried in the back room for a couple of years as I haven't had the time to play with it. Now I just have to get the elec hooked up and decide on a first project. I think I am going to continue to clean first as I think I saw a rather nice lathe poking out of the pile next to this

    I'd love to have one if I had the room. A good lathe too. I use a Bridgeport mill and a Okuma CNC mill at work every day. I'd love to have my own though......

    If it will fit in a lrfb I'll take it!
    One piece at a time is ok also.
