Sorry, can't help but be reminded of yet one more story.

Number of years back was up in Cowtown visiting a buddy. Called another friend who lives on an acreage about 20 mins out of town to come in & join us for a beer. The pissing & moaning we got was both sad & hilarious.

"Oh, it's so cold out." "There's a bunch of snow on the ground." "The wife doesn't want me to go." "I've got so much to do." Blah, blah, blah.

We hit a beer store, stopped by a grocery store to pick up some bread, eggs & sausage & headed out to his place (doing the speed limit, BTW), making a great show of "slogging" through the few inches of snow in his front yard, rang the doorbell, and, deadpan, handed him the beer & groceries & asked if he needed a blanket or anything else to survive.

Sheepishly he invited us in for beers, bread & sausage. :D
 
I think that is only generally true. Yes, bigger is usually better. But sometimes, you do need a small one! To have both would be perfect.

I agree, I have a 12” and it doesn’t go 90 degrees, I am not sure how useful that feature is, I just use a dividing head or spin indexer or switch to the horizontal mill sometimes.
