Re: General Purpose Mill/Drill/Lathe Recommendations?

If my budget was up around $15k I would also get a TIG welder, possibly with a multi-process power supply, and a couple auto-tint helmets.

I have heard that Everlast makes a reasonably nice welder, the Everlast PowerPro 205 will get you an AC/DC TIG welder (steel and aluminum) and a 50A plasma torch for $1600 new, and I hear that they are negotiable.

Good luck!
