Small milling machine home made

To build this small milling machine, of course, you need a lathe and also a milling machine with almost all accessories and tools. You cannot build such a machine at the kitchen table! So, why should a milling machine owner build another small milling machine?

Because he enjoys what he has made himself and the challenge of doing so

Because he does not want to "bother" with a large milling machine with high power consumption for particularly small milling parts in the future.

Because it is simply pleasant to work with such a small machine.

In addition to the meticulously compiled building instructions, author Jurgen Eichardt provides numerous references to other book publications and background information on metalworking. However, the book assumes knowledge of the numerous techniques and the milling and turning rules as known. As an introduction to this extensive do-it-yourself project, it is therefore advisable to read the entire book first as a "textbook" before then tackling the construction of the small milling machine and its accessories step by step.
