Both the Mill and the Lathe sold on eBay so I used that money to make a big dent in the purchase of a new Mill. I picked it up on Saturday and got it installed in the workshop over the weekend (that was an ordeal I dont soon want to repeat).

I just got it all cleaned up and running tonight. They come with a generous coating of grease to protect them from the elements and it takes some cleaning off.

I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. It's quite a bit bigger than my old mill and has some cool features. Really looking forward to machining some stuff on it.



Cheers
