Thinking about it everything in a engine block is machined with
precision, bolt 2 toghether and one could be the base and the second
one the headstock. bolt a drill table to the base and install a
spindle in one of the cilinder hole of the "headstock" and you get an
horizontal milling machine

That's actually a great idea! Seriously lacking pictures and the text
is short on specifics (rambling and vague) so I couldn't figure out how to
build one from just the pictures and text. I signed up to learn more; that
sort of cheapness and ingenuity is right up my alley!

Agreed. It's not my cup of tea, but they
appear to have an active forum of users and
anything that gets more people making chips
is fine with me.
