Go to Post In real life, I use almost nothing I learned from football except that with a bit of hard work you can get somewhere. Oh, and I have bad knees on top of that. I could have (and wished I would have) learned that from a FIRST FRC team instead. - JesseK [more]

Vertical Mill for FRC

Hey All,
I'm a mentor for Team 4619 looking for some tooling advice. We were lucky enough to receive a monetary grant from a sponsor specifically for new machine tools for our team. We already have a dedicated work-space in the school auto shop (with lots of small hand tools) and decided the best use of this sponsor money would be for a vertical mill and associated tooling. I have limited experience with large machine tools, and would love to get some advice/thoughts on the mill linked below. It fits well within our shop space, available power, and expected manufacturing needs. The price also allows us some room to buy bits and other accessories with the sponsor money. Does anyone have experience with the Grizzly brand? Thanks!
