I bought a handheld milling machine a few weeks ago and I've been using it over this past few days. Tonight I had to cut a track in the back of a kitchen cabinet so it would fit over conduit. Previously I would've been using a saw, hammer & chisel for this task. The milling machine had it done in half the time, a lot neater and less effort. I can't believe I've done without one for so long, wish I'd bought one sooner.
This is the handheld milling machine I bought in Lidl.
Ok, strictly speaking it's a router but it works exactly the same way as a milling machine! I daresay that if you fitted a slot drill you could mill brass or aluminium.
