I don't know why no one ever mentionned it, but...
There was an old regular here that once showed us a piece that he made, and how he built it was by milling a channel with some kind of drill press.
The trick is that he milled the channel at an angle, which reduces the side load on the mill. As I remember, he had a press that could actually handle a side load though.
It'd be limiting, but has anyone considered that?
