Hey everyone. I'm looking for some advice. I am in the process of building a custom r/c truck. I need to see if it is possible to replicate this kind of countersinking without bringing the piece to a machine shop.
This is a factory piece. It has the motor mount screw head area flat milled out. It has to be that style because the motor mount screw holes are slots to allow for adjustment.
The material I am using is .125 aluminum sheet. Unfortunately I have no clue what grade, (6061, 7075, etc) I got it from a coworker who's full time job is a machinist. Maybe it's neither, it is really shiny. Probably should ask him..lol Either way, is it something I can do on my own? Only thing I can think of that might work would be a router, but I don't have one.
Thanks in advance. Now off to get lost in one of the 200 forums you guys got here:cheers:
