That's a good decision. My little Sherline is just that, little (35lbs). With patience it can do good stuff, but it is very limited in strength. I am going to beef mine up though. Most of the parts on it will handle the pressure, it is just that week column that causes a lot of pain when doing Copper. If nothing else I will just use the good stuff on the sherline, find a really good cross slide table and build my own mill with a stout colum and better drive screws to do what I want it to do!!!
