Looking good!! And everyone thinks that running a CNC mill or lathe is just push the go button and everything comes out OK Slowing down the feedrate is not that bad of a thing to do. Recommended feeds and speeds are not all what they are cracked up to be!!!

thanks Lynn , tell me about it I tried to tell my wife that now she gets it , I just never spent so much time at the puter then the machine I cut the recomended feed down by 30% seems to work well I just worked up the next op for those trailer frames with the other frame in it 12 hrs I'm thinking I need to find a water jet guy for the basic profiles

"Any pictures of your set up on the machine?"

Steve , as I promised also this time I decided to use a bigger EM and crank the feed up also the spindle much better time







more tomorrow
