Hawkeye.
My compliments to you on the build you have done a smashing job.
Youre dead on right about ballsing up a part and it crushes the spirit, you done exactly the correct thing by concentrating on another part to numb the pain, also it gives you time to think of how youre going to correct it.
Horizontal mills are great for the gang milling thing you certainly can remove a ton of swarf quickly, I actually own one a small Atlas but it sits while I make up my mind on what to do with it.
I have given much thought over the years on making a jig for the milling table top to turn my milling machine into a crude horizontal machine.
