Hey there Justin!
Welcome to MEM (this time on your 'introduction' post:)).
As I mentioned in the other thread, I have a Taig lathe and mill. But before I got the mill, I used the little milling attachment to the lathe. It worked pretty well and was WELL worth the $40 price tag. That's how I completed my first few projects, was using that milling attachment on the lathe. After that, I convinced my wife to get me the mill for Christmas one year (back in 2012 I think).
But after a few years, I wanted a bigger mill, so ended up getting a larger Grizzly knee mill.
