Anyone do routine work with stainless steels (e.g. 304) with their lower stiffness benchtop machines like the Sherline or Taig (excluding the more rugged ones like the X2 etc)?
I have some spare blocks lying around but the most I've done was fly cutting them to square it off. And even that was a bit nerve racking since it is really loud, and frankly Im afraid it will just stall the motor if I make a mistake by going too deep a cut or too high feed rate.
Anyone tried CNC machining complicated stainless steel geometry parts with end mills on their benchtops?
