[QUOTE="zero_zero, post: 382425, member: 9932"] Not too long ago, I saw an ad for a dry, 5axis mill on social media... it seemed almost too good to be true. Long story short, I got in touch with the manufacturer and was provided with a lot of technical details and several local references as well. I talked to a few of them, and they were all happy with their purchase. So, I bit the bullet, and after a little over two months in shipping, it was delivered today.
