What does a wohlhaupter do , and can i use one in my grizzly milling machine-r8 taper

The old Enco model was made by Gamet. They turn up on Ebay fairly often and are pretty well made. I bought mine with an R8 shank. I used Wall-hoppers for many years in my horizontal boring mill days, a fine piece of equipment. The cheaper Gamet will do the same stuff given the constraints of a Bridgeport.

As far as what you can do in a Grizzly mill, it depends on the model and rigidity. You can get away with doing just about anything with sharp tools and shallow cuts.
