Recommendations on Glacern facemill or others?

I guess the 2 and 2.5 sell better so no need to put them on sale. My Bridgeport has the 1 HP motor. I'm leaning toward the 2 inch over the 2.5 for ferrous and stainless. Any thoughts?

Yeah the 2" & 2.5" do seem to be the more popular ones. If you have an R8 spindle I would say it's a better choice for what you want if you want to be able to remove a decent amount of material. I have a large benchtop mill & with the 2.5" FM45 it does a good enough job for me on steel. The 2.5" FM45 with integral shank is what Glacern recommends for BPs.
