I sure hope everyone has been too busy making chips on their machines to be hanging out here! It's been really dead here lately. Where is everyone?

Hey Ray. Had to deal with a lot of personal stuff the last 6 months. Hope to be back in the shop this year.

Kelvin,

Very sorry to hear that. Hope it all works out.

Did you get my e-mail yesterday re: your new production PDB?

Waiting on my mill to get in. Also, orders for my routers kicked up so I've been having to devote more time to production.

Is that the one with the tracking number?

Kelvin,

It does have a tracking number.... I sent it on Monday by FedEx. For reasons even they could not explain, it was returned to me on Friday. It will go out again on Monday, and you should receive it late next week.

I don't count really. But I was making my first Titanium part. Coming from aluminum and even steel having to run 300 SFM is so slow. Pretty sure I could max out the spindle on the machine at work with a 1/4" tool.

Nice job jid. The wonders machine can do

Beautiful, what caliber? If I may ask, why titanium?

Where is everyone?

Just learning and watching. Waiting for my fourth axis to arrive and waiting to get the latest version of the bob before moving forward. I've got a lot to learn; tooling is eating up my budget and I've still got to settle on a zeroing method and get the appropriate pieces and parts together to support that. Did i mention that tooling is eating up my budget?

Ain't this fun?

Compensator is for a 9mm major, open division race gun. All the typical reasons for Ti: light, strong, doesn't corrode, and is hard to machine.

That's looking nice, jared! looks like a very well thought out part, too. Its hard to tell, is that a 3d machined variable root radius in the bottom of those pockets?

[jid2]

Pockets are drafted and use a surface offset of the OD for the inside walls with some fillets at the joints. So yeah its all 3D surfaced.
