OK, so I have taken one machining class, but before I could complete the second half (second semester) I had to move away, and we never covered making a radius cut on a vertical mill.
This is the basic idea of what I want to cut:
So, this is just a guess, but would I use a non divided rotary table, use some hold downs to keep it in place, and then use that?
or should I just be asking if it can be done manually at all?
last, would my best bet be using round stock that I clean up on a lathe, and then mill the top half square-ish? Or would I be better off doing it all on a mill using square stock?
Thanks for the help!
