Would this be to big for model making and a novice machinist?
Thanks for looking and any opinions appreciated

check it and make sure that it is working as in not to much slop
and then make sure you have the room lol don't ask how I thought about this question lol
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
