If you are looking at a mill, the HM30 is $1,495 from Hare & Forbes. It's a chinese knock-off of the RF-31 for $200 less. The smaller X3 mills are nice but cost more. Apart from the basic mill, expect to spend at least $1,000 on cutters & accessories. It seems like a lot but you really need this stuff: Vise (5" at least), Collet set (ER32 type recommended), Clamp kit, 50mm carbide face cutter, parallels set, end mills (the chinese sets are crap!), digital calipers, dial indicator & holder, coolant pump & tank.
Come to think of it, you won't get any change back from thee grand . _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion
