In two days (unless you talk me out of it) I will be picking up my first mill, a two year old G0704 that has been "lightly used". It is coming with a set of quick change collets and a crappy craftsman vise that looks to be a drill press vise. I have used a mill before but it has been a long long time and I didn't do muchof my own setup.
My plan is to get a clamp down kit for starters. My first project will be a traming fixture. (Cheap indicator, brake rotor, rod and simple piece of aluminum bar). I would also like to get a 4" vice that doesn't brake the bank. A rotary table with a 3 jaw chuck.
What other basic tools should I be looking at to get me started?
