Tool Suggestions
So we're currently getting ready for the upcoming build season. What tools should we try to get with a budget of around $400.
Tools we have in our shop:
14" metal cutoff saw
Bench top drill press
Other basic hand tools
We have limited access to:
Mill
Lathe
Bandsaw
Does anyone know of a mini mill for aluminum that's in our price range? Or maybe a similar metal cutting tool that can handle side loads?
