Once you've finished this project, you're only a hop and skip away from this 3D printed Machining Mill. He uses the 3d printed pieces as a mold for reinforced concrete, so that it's heavy enough to resist the vibrations so that you can mill solid metal stock.

The single most impressive 3D printed DIY tool i've ever seen.
