side by side. only used it for a couple hours at work today with no problems

quote: What OS are you running? 64Bit or 32Bit? thread hijack i was going to try it out at home on 64 bit....will it work?

im going to download it now to bring to work on monday. so it is safe to instal and try without x2 going screwy? cant wait for x3 mr2 sp1 ...that means x4 is out anyday just kidding dumb question im sure..but if i pick up the usb sim from work tomorrow with the code our reseller emailed me can i run this on my home computer ....vista 64 business?

still waiting for the punchline

i was surprised to see that this wasnt an operator abuse thread but it sure didnt take long

in the end i milled the countersinks with a flowline spiral surface and a 1/2" endmill. thanks everyone for your help

good morning team! i just got my single flute cutter. i will try doing the counterbore with a flat endmill first then countersinking with the new tool.

thanks john..the new tool should be here tomorrow so i will wait. the spindle is belt driven so it must be slipping. hopefully the new tool will help. thanks everyone for your help, i will update tomorrow.

order cancelled, getting a 1 -1/4 " "TiN (Titanium Nitride)-coated high-speed steel countersink"

and i will try marks plan right now too

and i will try marks plan right now too

ok i just ordered a 3 flute bit from mcmaster carr...recommended for aluminum. its not a router but an older fadal hopefully i will be counter sinking successfully tomorrow

tried that and the spindle is still stalling. too many flutes?

i will give that a try murlin im scared now

thanks for all the responses guys this is such a great forum! i tried 600 rpm 10 inch per minute and the chatter is gone but it stops the spindle and leaves me with what you see in the picture. seems really hard on the machine. i am using coolant. seems like a different tool is my next step. one flute?
