That mill is a piece of junk. Its just a bench top drill press with a two direction slide on it.

You DO NOT want a mill that uses a chuck. Way too much chance of chatter and loosing a bit.
Also, this thing only has a max speed of 1000 rpm. Thats extremely low relative to most somewhat decent mills.

THis is an example of a little better low priced mill: http://cgi.ebay.com/JewelMasterNC-CN...QQcmdZViewItem
