and the more tooling that comes with it the better and as you have been told you can always use small bits in a big mill but can't always use big bits in a mini mill
Thanks Guys,

I was staying away from micro mills for that very reason, I don't want to have to upgrade in a year or twos time and I'm fortunate to have plenty of room for a large machine.

If there is a lot of play, is it adjustable or possible to re-build?
