Hey everyone! I've been milling a lot of aluminum with my drill press and I think it's possible to use a drill press as a mill, or at least use it for small, light duty milling projects, which is what I'm demonstrating in this video. For this project I'm milling a raw piece of 6061 aluminum to make it flat and even on all sides and to look more shiny. I have to say, it came out PERFECT! The project was a success but, let me know what you think.
I also want to let everyone know I've started a new YouTube Channel called @followthefitness_official Please subscribe to my channel and show some love. If you've always wanted to get in shape but never liked the gym then try out my new channel.
