Re: The OO project
You may be able to find a used one that's too worn for metalworking but quite suitable for woodworking. One advantage of getting used one is that it may include some tooling -- collets, drill chuck, clamp set, etc. -- that can add a thousand bucks or more to the cost if you get it all new.
Don't believe everything you know.
Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.

Re: The OO project
My secret to inlaying that lizard is CNC. I cut out the inlay using a 1/32" dia cutter in my CNC setup, then I cut the pocket the same way, using the same outline, so it HAD to fit. I'm hopeless inlaying anything else, though I can do dots. ;-)
