This is only my opinion/rating! A beginner at best! I found Mini-Machines 101: Mini Mill Basics, Milling, Flycutting & Dovetailing to be very nicely done. Will touch & cover the procedures with explanations you're sure to learn from. Guaranteed to increase your knowledge. Would feel comfortable recommending this DVD to other budding mini-machinists.
