Why I bought a mill

David, a good TIG welder is >$1,300 plus the tank and gas.
So, the egg came before the chicken.

You should ask the forum which other "gotta haves" you need for your mill. We're all more than happy to spend your money!

Yup... I've been pricing them out. Not cheap.

It seems every time I try to save money and buy something cheap, I end up selling it at a loss and then buy what I should have in the first place.

I think that's the Third Law of Economics Theory, isn't it? Best of my recollection, there is a corollary to it: "The increase in the amount paid for the initial item is directly proportional by a factor of two to the loss realized on the inferior purchase."

In a similar vein, after I got the mill unloaded on Saturday my mega-supportive partner said that I seem to be well on a path to setting up a well equipped hobby shop. She asked what else I might need.

I replied that I’d like a TIG welder.

If you need to justify it more, I could send you a single TIG tungsten electrode.......then you'd have to buy one!

Nice. I've got 2 of those vise stops & love them. Also have their table mount Pro Stop also. They make great products!
