Ray, SEHX is polished to a mirror finish on the insert it self. How does this insert perform? Mirror like finish on the part's surface?

Are they postive or negative rake? Been looking at the pros/cons of neg/postive

Think it was your thread that I read, regrading using only half the inserts.

so what face mill do you use?

When isn't power a limiting function of a Tormach?

Doesn't matter the cutting edges, limitation is HP. Don't have the power to drive 6 cutting edges .100 doc on a 3" facemill. One item I product I have to take .105 off one side and 0.050 on the...

Thanks Mr Clarkson. I left enough wire and zip tied it around the wiring harness on top of the z motor, drilled a small hole in the axis cover toward the rear and ran it down.


I caved and...

How did you guys route the wiring, if you don't have the PDB?

I did a combination of shimming the corner to tram the X. For Y I placed small shims under the head where the heads bolts to the z axis carriage.

I was asking a genuine a question. What's with the butthurt?

What was the "other issue"


If your reach your hand on the ball screw (x and z at least) if you have oil, you are good? I typically will lower the head and squirt some oil on the z ball screw...

You are referring to the yoke that is bolted to the carriage for y travel? You can remove the way covers and get a socket wrench and allen head in there. If I'm miss understanding, I apologize...

Solution: Roughed out but left .005 radial and ...

Higher speed = RPM or IPM?

The floor is important because it's what I'm having issues with lol. how would you finish the bottom with out cutting in the wall? Would have to leave atleast 0.002...

Wouldn't that little ledge be noticeable? I'm more using it as practice for when I start taking on jobs.
