Just looking for advice; My shop is of extremely limited size, (it's in
the livingroom of my apartment!) and I'd rather spend what space I do
have with a small band saw.. I have a Taig metalworking lathe,
and I saw that HUT sells a jig for drilling blanks with my lathe... my
question is, should I spend the $20 on the jig, or use the milling vice
(vertical cross-slide)? I guess my question, is more, has anyone used
their lathe drilling jig, and was it worth it? it looks the same as
their drill press jig, except with holes to bolt it to the cross-slide..
