Hello all.
I am currently looking for a mid-sized mill. Something bigger than a bench mill like an X3, but smaller than a Bridgeport.
I am currently looking at the GH Universal mill from Warco, but I have not managed to have a hands on play with one yet. I was also suggested to look at a Chester 626, but I HAVE now managed to have a play with one of these, and found that I didn't get on with it very well.
I don't want to break the bank, but I'm ready to spend an acceptable level of money to get the right machine, and I'd rather spend a bit of time finding the right one, than buy something quickly and regret it.
I was hoping anyone with a Mid-sized mill could give me your thoughts. What are the must have items? What do you wish was better? What were the reasons you brought the mill you did?
Many thanks
Alf
