advice needed for mini milling mach
due to a less of job I try to keep me up with some shopping(my wife could kill me, she prefere just a cheap meditation) so I purchase that new toy:
Obviously I don't think it's a professional gear, just to enjoy in some scratch: it cost me approx. 330-350 $ (420 eur) with the rotating tablet: it's enough to me. What I'd like to ask is if someone of you know that or could advice before I start to use. It should be here this week, just kept to LHS. Really I dond had to pay it: I trade with a '03 G4 emac (I had 5 mac and some pc, it's enought for 1 designer) plus a cash bonus (that I spent in new PE tamy tweezers-fantastic to me-, spay work stand and some other stuff) here some data: Technical Data: 220 - 240 V, 100 W, 50/60 Hz. Spindle speeds 5,000 - 20,000 rpm. Table size 200 x 70 mm. Travel is 134 mm (x axis), 46 mm on the y axis, Z (height) 80 mm. Machine base 130 x 225 mm. Total height 340 mm. Weight approx. 3.5 kg. The clamp blocks are included, but not the workpiece and the 3 cutters. So, work area is really close, but is enough to me to do something also for my RC beasts

Spindle speeds are really fast.

Re: advice needed for mini milling mach
My advice is for you to give me your address so I can come and play with it too!!! Maybe while I collect my daughter's ski boot?
Lucky you ! Looks great and have fun!

Too much vino and the paint schemes can start to get interesting
