    Vertical Mill

    A 10x50 table won't do it either....or at least that's what my milling machine is and it won't go off the end of the cut. If I'm taking a lot off, I'll do it with a fly cutter and then take the head to a shop for a light finish cut. Lots of shops around here don't like to take off more than .010...

    Made a Differential Dolly

    Weeell, one problem with making tools like that for helping out in the shop is they take up space when not in use. When I built my shop it was quickly apparent that it wasn't going to be big enough for everything I wanted to do and the building was nearly 1500 sq ft. After sticking in a 15"...
