Is that a vertical mini-mill?

Yes. It's no Bridgeport, but it does most of what I need. I mostly use it for precision drilling operations (tool steel and titanium) on my folding pocketknives. It also get's used for other projects too. I used it to make all the flanges for the 914's turbo plumbing. It's really a great value if you start looking at the price (about the same) of a decent bench-top drill-press and weigh in the versatility of a bench-top milling machine. It was a no brainer for me and I'm very happy with it. The chuck it came with was junk, but I replaced that with a nice ROHM and now it is very accurate for the price (even more so with collets). Since it's so small you can't take deep bites when milling (It'll chatter up a storm), but it does a great job for it's size.

Finally got around to taking a few pics of my 'shop'. This is a 10'x20' lockable shed attached to a 2-car carport.

Here's my work bench.

BTW, my 700th post...
