I think it will serve me well. Just going to go over it and check everything.

The hunt for a mill is over. I just got home with a used PM-25MV that I found on Facebook. It was only 30 miles away. Was not what I would have bought if I had ordered one, but could not pass on the...

I have finally got the motors switched out and have made a couple of parts with it. Still have not found any information on it. Guess I will just fly by the seat of my pants.
