Not sure I've ever seen a DRO on one of them before... neat little mill.

Thanks!
I'm pretty proud of the DRO setup. I did the conversion for about $250... it beams coordinates to my tablet via Bluetooth. If you have any interest, I did a write up on a shooting forum that I frequent (my other hobby is gun building). http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=143512

We also have a shooting thread here (as you probably already know) "Full Metal Jacket Required".
I, and I'm sure many other members would love to see some of your firearm work.

Thanks. Regarding the gun thread, I actually did not notice that... Maybe I'll post a few of the more interesting pieces in my collection... Though I'm pretty sure most of our members hailing from outside the USA (and maybe some members living here) will think I'm nuts.

People already think that lock pickers are nuts and here you are among friends.
Seriously, I and I'm sure many others would love to see some (all??) your collection.
PS there is also a thread for knives here - we cover the whole spectrum of "nuts".

Thanks.
Never considered CNC. I don't use it enough to to justify the cost... Plus, it is rare that I make more than one of the same part, which takes away much of the utility of a CNC setup.
If you are in the market for a hobby mill, get the best one you can afford. I'm actually disappointed with mine in two respects: rigidity and power. In retrospect, I wish I had gone with this machine... https://littlemachineshop.com/products/ ... 1387807683 With all the mods I made to mine to remedy the little problems it has, the cost would have been about the same, and I would have ended up with a stiffer and more powerful mill. Good luck with your purchase.
