The likely mill would be the Shizuoka:

My Zubal might swing it, but it's not CNC yet:

A lathe is the most stable, a mill is easier to set up. On my equipment
I would use a 2" boring head in the mill and stick the tool bit out the
side of the head for the best rigidity.
A trick I have used to get a smooth finish with low feed rate is when
you set the head for the finish cut is to feed down at 3X feed rate then
feed out at lower rate. The courser (in)feed lines seem to break up any
chatter that can develop as you feed back out at the lower rate.
