Hi Bill,

check this one out.

http://www.useenco.com/pdfs/122.PDF

it is suitable for milling and will accept standard tooling.
Harbor Freight sells cheap cast iron tables with a vise,
but the quality is poor for CNC. Requires machine quality
ACME rod upgrade, to replace the architectural (pretty but useless)
ACME rods that are supplied.
