Bought a new mill

- Start date
Congrats on the new purchase, I have the same one and enjoy its capabilities, it just takes a little foresight when setting up the piece if you have to avoid moving the column up or down. Great start on stand as well, I have the king stand and the storage area isn't that great. Lots of upgrades available too if you go that route, for me I think a dro might be one I will do in the future, enjoy your new tool.
Now the expensive part starts. Nice job on the stand,

Already start to spend time and money around tools.
Will wait a while for next.
Know anybody with an engine lift? They are easy to take apart and reassemble if needed.
Or maybe @Brent H wench would like to come and stay with you a while. That babe can handle a whole Bridgeport!

I think he meant that rather than thinking about using it he was concentrating on getting in on the stand first which is now accomplished.

How did you get it on the stand? My RF30 clone is a good 500-600 lbs assembled.
Ya, I see that now. No Fn fun! Need to play on the floor like a little boy first......
