Pressure fitting 1/32" wire to make a pin wheel.

You probably have up-hill all the way until you'll find the right process. This is seriously small dimenssion and all comes very critical with it. Chucks will not nip this small material very close to nose, you would need a very small parting off blade, very near to centre line and very sharp...I used loupe to cut few and you have way more than 60 pcs!

What material you settled with and how does it cuts? Does it machines easy, work hardening, soft, hard? How does that biscuit crumble?

With a little bit of luck you might have a material that could be soft enough to shear, but not like scissor or pliers. More like two hardened blades with minimal clearance and a close fitting, but not tight hole on right trough both of them. Idea being of shearing, but not flattening.

I'm sure you will crack it one way or another.

Disregard my reply. I made a comment then found that you had solved the problem and had completed the pin wheel. I tried to delete my comment but you can't do that so I just modified it to "Disregard" Sorry for the confusion. :bow: :bow:
