Just get a Bridgeport vert mill and be done with it. You can pick up a used one for a handful of Bennies.
I dont need an industrial sized drill press and I really want to stay away from getting a bridgeport. Next thing you know Ill have a lathe and a full damn shop. Have to build another garage for the cars.

Its really only going to be used occasionally, mostly for woodworking but will need to be able to drill through some small plate steel if needed.
