Almost as solid as this DIY build from a redditor
That’s a lathe…
Cool build, but a little reading in how mills and lathes are made would result in a much better machine. The Gingery machine shop series is cheap and good to read even if you don’t want to pour aluminum - his machines also make some bad compromises, but the books also inform you of things that would make you do machines like this different if you knew them.
I totally read that as killing machine and got confused.
Any machine is a killing machine if you use it improperly enough.
Getting an endmill with a dessicant package:
It said not to eat the dessicant so the rest should be ok, right?
Don’t give up so easy. Pretty sure it can be expanded to fit you on the bed.
I read “solid” as “sold” and was thinking it was trying to get around taxes or something.
“Nah, it’s not a 3D printed machine. It’s a rock!”
I first read it as milking machine…
How fast can you spin a cow on a spindle?
Depends… The technician inside me asks: How big and heavy is the theoretical cow and can I get a huge spindle with a powerful motor?
So we’re using additive manufacturing to produce tools for reductive manufacturing now? Interesting.
my favorite kind of tool is a tool that makes tools
Very cool!
