When / why would you swing the head on a mill?

Go BIG or Go HOME ! Just kidding , BPs are the most versatile machine for a reason .

To get around a broken tooth just change the position of the broken tooth to the other side

The broken tooth is part of the head casting, there is no other side.

I'm only about 1/2 way to a Bridgeport. Moving up from a mini-mill to a little knee mill. A lot more moving bits, just trying to figure out why they move.
