So i want to save up for a mill, but my housing doesn't have a lot of space for a full size mill as-well as 3 phase power. I have been looking at a MyLittleMachineShop HiTorque Mini Mill, Deluxe. I don't plan on doing a large objects just, basic milling and drilling mostly for brackets and maybe some knife making. however i do have a table i bought a while back and it can hold up to 500 Pounds I have done some research and this is the best mini mill I have found. however there are lots of smart people on this community and i would like to hear you ideas / alternatives. Thanks in advance

this is my space to work with

You might want to look at Sherline ( https://www.sherline.com/) if you want a miniature milling machine.
