Edi, Yes I have the castings. I have been working on some of the small brass parts. So you think I'd be able to do the milling of the block on my lathe with a milling attachment?

i am also wondering how well the milling attachment would work on a 7 x 16 lathe. i have the pee wee v4 castings and i am wondering if i would be able to do the milling of the block, oil pan, and heads on this set up

and the tooling plate sold at little machine shop.com

this is sold at little machine shop.com

hello, can the pee wee v4 block work be done on a 7 x 16 lathe with a milling attachment?

Thanks guys I appreciate all the reply’s. I have a walk-in basement so it really won’t be a problem setting up shop. I am completely new to this hobby so I have a-lot to learn yet. I think I will defiantly go with separate machines but now I’ll need to figure out what brand to buy. I still have...

joco-nz, thanks for your reply .... ill most likely go with the individual machines :thumbup:

Niels Abildgaard, space is not an issue. I will be setting up my shop in my basement. I'm just not sure if a combo lathe and mill would be better than the standalone units. I just don't want to buy the wrong machines.

hello, I am new here and I am wanting to buy a lathe and a mill and would love to hear your thoughts. What would be better for a beginner like me a lathe and mill combo or standalone machines. I have never used either machine before but I am very interested in building a model engine. Thank...
