I would save the steel plate for future projects, the mill base bolted to the table top with either bolts or lag screws will hold it securely enough. This is less than 200 lb mill, it would probably work well bolted to a kitchen table top, it is much smaller than my RF45 clone which needs a fairly substantial base. Enjoy it it will make very accurate pieces, it looks to be about 10 X better than the Shureline mills. Should last your lifetime and probably at least 1 more if taken care of. I know what the spending spree is all about,
I have spent many thousands on equip for my shop just hope now to live long enough to enjoy it. I am very envious of lots of the projects many build on this type of equip I just hope that I can get my skills refined enough to do the same. enjoy, I look forward to reading your posts. tom
