  1. ^^^^^^Jimmy Hoffa, who?^^^^^^^ never to be seen or heard of again...............
  2. Do you have thru tool coolant? If not make sure you retract you drill far enough to clear out the chips and put coolant into the bottom of the hole if possible. I would check out WALTERS TITEX drills. I have also used OSG drills both live very well in titanium. What surface footage are you running? I'd start at 80 and work my way up from there (should get around 135 sfm if all works well).
  3. Where did you end up running them? SFM, CPR? plus radial and axial cut.
  4. Made up in the mind possibly, while in sleep mode accessing the nightmare portion of the brain to be exact.
  5. Walter feed mills also work great they may hate surface footage but they do love (handle) surface footage.......
  6. Try HARVEY Tool they may be able to custom grind something for you.
  7. Carr Lane has clamps that are similar to Pit bull clamps. You might want to see what they can do for you price wise.
  8. Had Predator once a long time ago, does not compare to Cimco.
  9. ^^^^ And don't forget if you can afford it, a coalescer ^^^^
  10. Remember soon it will not longer be personal it will all be automated. The computers will look for the best deal and go for it........
  11. Make sure you keep your coolant on both the part and your tool and your chips evacuated so you don't recut any.
  12. Imco can also get you the reach so can SGS
  13. Ha ha ha I get the Bueller reference . I know you can do this on HAAS but I don't think it is possible with FADAL. Try typing in DI from command mode then DE and see if it gives you tool changer options if not try DI then DD.
  14. Bwahahaha, sorry about that Tim. Just seems strange how some guys just want to keep arguing with knowledge. I mean how in the world would hand edited code ever repopulate values in side of any cam software.
  15. Remember that sometimes the lack of knowledge is what causes people to argue with tree stumps.
  16. Doing a little 5s I see. We have foam and drawer liners in the toolboxes here.
  17. If you go to the program edit page you can toggle to the dry run option using the space bar. forgot to put that in earlier.
  18. Tyler just checked, you can get 300 ipm out of it for your rapid moves and 75 ipm on G1 - G3. If you have more G1's than G2 or G3's you could swap the rapid moves for the latter and see if that gets you were you want to be.
  19. Check in the graphics portion and see if there is a dry run option. I believe it goes 300 ipm. As soon as I'm over by my 6030 I'll look and make sure that is were it is at. If not I'll let you know where I found it.
  20. The world around you will soon come to an end, you better get ahold of Daniel and buy a Doomsday kit. Your gonna need it. Bwaahaahaahaa..........
  21. I've used "o" ring material before and it also works very well. You can cut a groove with a ball endmill about 60% depth for the diameter your using. Just buy a roll and cut it to the desired length and glue together.
  22. At 1.26 IPM you'd have less than .0003" CPR. if your drill point was a little dull and your coolant was less than 6% you probably had a galling issue. If it was me I would go with a peck of .100 for depth and start at 3.8 IPM if the coolant mix looks good.
