Yesterday, I made my first chippings...... :D I squared across the end of a piece of steel, using the full length of an 18mm endmill..... What a revelation! :bugeye: Sweet, smooth, quiet...... With the cutter directly in the snout, rather than ER32 holder, the head is much lower and more rigid. :thumbup: Very pleased with my new "GT" mini mill...... Thank you all, for your input. :clap: :clap: David D |

Hi Dave Good to see your back in the chip making buisness :thumbup: When are you going to start killing that Robinson engine :poke: :D Stew |
| Stilldrillin:
Kenneth. Thanks for that! I'll post a project build, in a day or so..... :thumbup: Stew. I've got to catch up with a few bits an bobs.... Then, the Mrs Robinson saga will be re started...... :wave: Hmmmm...... That means I've got to show "that pic"..... Doesn't it! :bang: ...... And what's happened since..... :bang: :bang: Hmmmm....... ::) David D |

Is this what you mean? 6mm cutter, in R8 collet...... Head well down the slideway. More rigid than (previously) using an ER32 holder....... Working on the write up, at the mo..... David D |

Far too much, as far as Mrs Drillin is concerned! :thumbup: David D |
