yo yo, flood cooling is sweet!!!
I took .1" in copper with a 1/4" EM at about 3ipm with no complaints.
all that work with the 1/16" EM went really awesome, I cut a more complex bp than what is blurred out in 25 minutes.
Ill be getting some new hoses for it when I find them, I have that sheild and all drips into my drip catcher then down into my rubbermaid 12qt pre-reservior that holds all the chips, then drips through really small holes into a bigger 20qt rubbermaid rez I got at walmart. the pump is one I bought from homier for $10, really cheap, works well, high enough pressure and flow, actually too high I got it extremely clamped off with a C clamp couldnt find a valve laying around and it worked great. I clamped it closer to the nozzle so it doesnt take as long to flow up.
this stuff is great stuff! Im liking it a lot. Im thinking about completely encasing my mill and running the coolant at full blast
