    Run a Kennymetal Harvey 3 endmill. Start at 265 sfm. Should be able to go 300 no problem. Keep you Chip load around. .0009" to .0013" per tooth. 8% of diameter for radial.

    There are great videos online thru YouTube, if your work will pay for training there are good online courses you can take. The cost is reasonable they won't and you have a credit card. There are also Great forums on Facebook if you do a search for them. https://caminstructor.com/ https://streamingteacher.com/

    Bob Wolcott has several in his shop and would be a great source. But alas it will take the all mighty Daniel to send Bob an email and let him know he can now log in since he got locked out when emastercam changed the system a while back.

    Used Calef once while our regular guy was on vacation. All I can say is keep an eye on them.

    If you run M00 with inattentive operators try multiple M00 with comment between such as M00 (remove clamps or crash) M00 (Don't be stupid remove the clamps) M00 (if you forgot the clamps and crash say good bye on your way out) Worked at a shop where I worked and the guy did say good bye on his way out.......

    If only there was some old timer that could step up and show a few tricks that he has up his sleeves. You know a power user that could show he still has it.................

    No matter what coolant you use coolant maintenance is a must. I have oil skimmers and aerators on the machines here. Next step is to get a coalescer. The cleaner you keep your coolant the longer it will last and the less bad bacterial build up you get. I'm using HANGSTERFER'S S500 CF here. http://www.zebraskimmers.com/oil_skimmer_products/portable_coalescer.html

    Daniel save it. You know you can or have the resources to. Consider the amount of people who come here profesional and student alike. He was one of your on line tutors, what a tribute to a friend, colleague and mentor to so many.

    Save it to IH, this way it lives on in Chris's name only. No one else needs to take the glory of what he started (it could happen and his name lost in the crowd). A lot of people come here for knowledge ne reason they should be able to see what a great person he was.

    With IMTS just around the corner ask the guys sitting behind the counter at the MC booth. Sad thing is they're trying to accommodate the youth who have no skill or knowledge but want to be programmers. Make it look and feel like a game controller, and Ribbon bars that they can relate to.

    I follow close as possible to what Bob just wrote. What I have done here is make some of my tool flex tools, in my case tool 5 is an end mill and will always be an end mill. Tool 6 is a 3/8 endmill and may change in gauge length but will always be a 3/8. Having only 21 tools in one machine and another with 30 and 2 with 40 you have to get creative to have at least a partial dedicated list. Hi Bob :waving: where ya been? (dumb question when the answer is work)

    Put an M5 above your M09 line then add the M19 to the G28 line if it does not orientate automatically. If your spindle locks by the use of an detent you will cause wear to the locking mechanism by putting the brake on while the spindle is still at RPM.

    " to be <.0002” for a given temperature, but .0014” change from cold (74°F) to hot (111°F)." I see similar results on all axis where I work on our VF 3 now on our VF 8 it's a little less but it has scales.

    "Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I'm assuming that the people who are against on the vote here, are knocking the fact that the icons (and the ability to customize them) went?" Phissed for better clarification

    With the amount of chatter in the floor of the aluminum plate holding the part I have to agree get it rigid before doing anything else.
  24. THEE THAINZ™
    I do close to the same but instead I either delete the old geometry, import the new and keep the tools or import the tools into a new file. Personally I prefer to delete the old geometry this way you keep your levels view and groups the same throughout the family. Just make sure you tie the part number to the files for ease of access.

    Never ran a MAKINO but CALLIN Bob Wolcott oh Bob what's your take on MAKINO'S? Go to you tube and look up Makino's and tie Bob's name to it. You'll get a ton of worth while videos.
