Greetings all;
An unusual question. How to cut, neatly, and squarely, a 20mm square
carbon fiber tube to length, say 550mm out of an 800mm tube. I'm making
a linear rail bearing X axis for two of my 3d printers,
I have a die grinder that I can mount in a quick change holder, and a 2"
by 30 thou CBN disk and 1/4" arbor, and a 4 jaw chuck on my Sheldon.
Do I need to print an 18mm square plug to insert into this tubing to
support the 1mm thick tubing walls, or can a relatively light grip be
enough to hold it fixed while I turn slow and cut it off with the CBN
wheel running at about half line voltage in the die grinder?
All I can see in my minds eye is a hugely ragged edge cutting it by hand
with a hacksaw.
Better ideas anybody?
Thanks All.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
