Cute micro lathe but???

[riversidedan]

Been watching some videos on unimats and am getting interested......already have a 7x1tho 4 and sold a grizzly 4x6 micro lathe
last year.........
Even tho there cute and well made am having problems envisioning what projects they can do I cant do on the 7x14
Tho the part that turns me on is the mill ! but, what can u make??? Seen some videos about the mill however doesn't really show anyone making parts unless I've missed something...........if you own one of these what have u made? And how useful can these be ??

You would not find a Unimat to be all that capable compared to a mini lathe; they normally can't cut threads, and the work envelope is tiny
The milling feature is very limited as well. Makes a nice micro drill press though
