And while we are on AcuRite note that it is a 2D machine, and part of
why simple jobs are faster there is because there is no motor on the Z-
raising and lowering a quill to change from center drill to drill to
drill to reamer is a big pain with a Z motor. That is exactly why my
Grizzley mini mill will not get a z motor.

My Rong Fu RF-45 has the Z-axis movement tied to the column. The quill is
still stock- so it's great to be able to run the table around and then manually
drill and tap a hole fast. If I have to drill 80 holes, then I use a canned
drill cycle.
