Hey folks Looking for some honest advise.

I'm planning on buying a milling machine for my workshop. I am considering buying the HAFCO HM-54GV Turret Milling Machine

https://www.machineryhouse.com.au/m579

It will be used for small projects in garage, nothing industrial, and I'm hoping for 30 years light usage (once in a lifetime purchase). Can't imagine I'm going to need very accurate tolerances and I don't mind fixing it up a bit if need be......

Is this machine Ok? I've read lots of bad things about HAFCO and Chinese equipment etc.......?

Also I have budget around $7000 and weight limit of around 1 tonne.

Thanks
