The thing is that there are so many variables involved. Spindle speed, flutes, coating, speed of cut, depth of cut, machine rigidity, etc. Maybe...
Kool Mist 77 is very good, no-toxic, etc. You will need to mist it, but a mister can be bought for $20 on ebay, and then just need to hook it to a...
All plates were milled on my previous machine, a Sphinx. The ballscrews were I think $300, and the Rails were about $500, give or take. The...
