THE 3DWAXMILLER CLUB.

thanks! I'll look into that....

most all the time I use a 10 deg. 010 tapered ball end bit at full speed finish path (one pass cutting) ..If I'm cutting deeper then 5mm I'll slow it down a little maybe to 8-12 mps I don't worry about any other speed feed rates full throtle all the time is all you need with these bits they don't br...

here's a picture of the finished milling part I did this with the 1mm ball end mill took apx 3 hrs I'll try picking it up a little ..as soon as I get some flat stock I'll try something on the 15...

here ya go using my new bit!

it'll either be the bit or the mill ..just kidding! don't you use the tapered ball end bits from b&b? one will last you forever

actually bits and bits make their own bits and bits.....I know you bought them but I think you'll break them if you go too deep they don't work like the taperd ball end bits...snappy time!

hey toddy, got my new bit in (I just ordered a flat end mill also) the one on the right is the new bit... it is supposed to be alot stronger then the other.... that one I got at harbor freight in the 'set' I think I'll like the new bit for milling metal...should be able to go faster!

fun for now, but now the fun is over...I'm getting some new bits so I might try another one... ran it with a 1mm ball, at apx 9000 rpm, at 60 mm per min, apx .4mm cut in, took 8 hours..so now you see what I mean about a 'widow' maker ..after 5-7 hrs you just keep praying the bit don't break...I took...

hey toddy add two cups of coffee, 4 slices of bacon, two fried eggs, fried potatoes with sausage gravy over them, two slices of buttered toast and milling in alum. feeling your heart beat everytime it makes a deep cut hoping (fingers crossed) that the bit don't break and you got yourself a real 'wid...

I know I milled it on the mdx40 but I thought you guys might like to see anyway...

wing ring

milled on the 15

forgot the top!

I might have to take you up on that if you have the time ..I have to rework the pen to fit this threaded, metal tip, refill as a plastic tip didn't look right....as it being a tube apx 5.5 inches x 1.7mm thick would you close one end solid and attach the sprue there?

set up with a pen and IPOD/IPAD/IPHONE end on it.
now to find someone that can cast a piece 5.5 inches long in silver..so far no luck!
