Hello all.
So I decided to pick up a few lower 80% receivers. Bought the template, and orders the bits. I'm still missing the largest component.
So here is my question.
It seems for a decent drill press, I'm going to spend around the $500 mark (I know I can get one's cheaper, but want to buy something that I buy once, and not have to worry about it for several years; and I need it to be floor standing due to space).
The Grizzly mini milling machine (which quite a few people seem to really like) goes for $725 shipped. I have never used a milling machine, and know their is a curve to learning it; I'm okay with that.
So, which would be my better option? And why?
Thanks in advance.
