I have this same machine.

Its strength is on the lathe, though its speed range does not really allow for turning larger diameter stuff.

The mill side is not so great, though usable for soft materials since the neck can flex.

We put one of those sidewinder fans on a customer's Road Runner. Somehow, a 440 with the correct crossmember, correct motor mounts, correct core support, and correct radiator ended up having about 3 inches between the end of the water pump and the radiator. No room for any kind of mechanical fan or a traditional electric. Enter the sidewinder.

They sound neat, BTW, with the little beltdrive on it.
