Why would anyone want a Bridgeport mill in their home shop? Think of it as a more analog CNC machine, meaning that it can make virtually any part you need out of metal, wood or even plastic.

Perhaps the more important question, though, is how exactly you get such a machine into your home shop, considering that mills often weigh more than 2000 pounds.

Lucky for you, our own Tom Suddard did the heavy lifting (literally) to show you how to buy and transport a Bridgeport mill and how to get it to fit into a workspace.

How exactly did we make it possible? We won’t spoil the story here, so head over to the “Can You Really Put a Bridgeport Mill In Your Home Garage?” thread over on the Builds and Project Cars forum to see how we actually managed to pull it off.
