3 Milling a Slot End Mills used to mill slots in a piece
4 Milling a Shoulder Conventional & Climb Milling
A Shoulder or step milled into a piece Conventional Milling-part is fed against the motion of the tool; best for rough cuts Climb Milling-Part is being fed along with direction or rotation of the tool; better surface finish cuts

Excellent video, glad to see safety glasses on this one, gloves would really drive a good point home. Great explanation on climb milling verse conventional milling!

Gloves should never be worn on a mill, lathe or drill press.

Ditto to gloves never being worn where things rotate. They can catch and you will be pulled in.

You shouldn’t be used the quill for milling. Bring the knee up and lock the the quill down in its fully retracted state. You can damage the quill by the extreme side forces generated from milling.
