Thanks for the great advice people!
I'm going to start looking for a second hand cross-table vice. Its also a great excuse to build myself a proper workbench instead of using the kitchen bench!
I loved that setup done for the GForce III. Very schmick!
Got the cutting oil, and I can set up my compressor to get rid of the copper 'shavings'.
I'm not sure how well the drill press will handle it. Its a pretty geeky Ryobi

. Go slowly I suppose.
Cheers
