Hey guys, I just got into making vacuum forming molds.
Can anyone give me any tips or recommend products on drilling 0.02" diameter holes for vacuum forming on 6061 alloy? DOC goes up to 0.05".
Is it OK to make a 0.04" diameter hole instead?
Based on your experience, is it better to drill the holes manually using an air tool/hand drill or on a CNC mill?
Since the cavities are pretty deep, I'm kind of anxious of having a large overhang on the drill bits when using CNC.
Any input is appreciated. Thanks! :cheers:
