I don't have room for a Bridgeport and bought a smaller Clausing

mill, which is very similar to this:

I don't have room for it, but I'd love that Griz. Looks sweet.
I'll
bet that Clausing is nice, too.

I prefer it to a Bridgeport for milling small parts to scribed layout
lines, copied off the broken part I'm replacing. However they are old
(worn?), rare, fairly expensive and don't have R8 spindles.

The 8525 has a B&S 7 spindle taper that's difficult to find tooling
for.
