I have a project that involves milling four inch slots in 1/4" wall, annealed 4140 tubes.
It's a good justification for upgrading from my swaybacked antique mill to something new.
I'm tempted to overbuy and go for the G0755 just on general principles, but the G0704 would be a lot easier to get into the shop and shifted into position, has more than adequate travel in all three axes, and I could blow the saved money on a new vise and tooling.
Anyone have any suggestions?
