Chris,
The black plastic knob in the center of the quil handle is to engage the worm feed on the spindle. This will allow you to use a boreing head and boreing bar if the precision of the job should require it. The brushed chrome knob in the front will feed the spindle up and down when the worm is engaged.
Also, check out a company called HARVEY’S. They make minature endmills for micromachining. Once you are up and running you may have a use for extremely small end mill cutters.
