Square column vs. small knee mill

[Praeger]

Thanks!

However the problem with these monsters is I only have a tiny space to work with, I’ve got a 1 car garage that’s already housing my project car (the thing I’m building with my tools), lathe, welder, and other tools.

Sure, I’d love a full size Bridgeport, if I had another bay.

Even the smallest knee mills will require a work envelope of 74"x 50". That's a lot of room out of a single car garage. Have you looked at the PM-833T? Several H-M members have posted reviews.
