New Milling Machine

Hi Tom, idiots weekly question - this is for wood, or metal working ? Being an accountant, I don't know much about such things, but I'm happy to nod my head approvingly, having benefited from your handiwork before! What sort of applications does it have ?

Ill use it for steel and wood, but it's meant for steel. I can see myself making and modifying parts, like illustrated by Jmoore, inletting stocks, cutting barrel channels, cutting extractor slots in newly threaded and chambered barrels, making tools, making bedding blocks, fitting sights to rifles/pistols, drilling and tapping tasks. I sold my drill press to help cover the cost, so it will do all my drilling. I think I'll be using this all the time.
