Manual experience is good. You will be able to do alot with the hand wheels with a lot of practice. Tooling is definatly an issue. I dropped about $300 just for the stuff to do a basic water block. So on top of the $500 for the mini mill plan on another $300+ for tooling. A good collet set, good vice, and some good endmills and drill bits. Fly cutter is nice aswell but not at all needed. You will still have to hand lap the blocks anyway but the fly cutter can take quite a few steps off.
I can't find jack on the Rung Fu. :shrug: Sounds like a good mill though.
