Well, that may be a problem. Maybe it has enough rigidity for drilling
circuit
boards, but the small carbide bits are very sensitive to movement of the

drill spindle while in a hole. If the head vibrates, it will break
drills.
For milling, the side forces are significant, even with very small end
mills. This machine wasn't designed for side loads, so unless it was
very
overdesigned, you may have problems with it.
