Hi Tim I hope to follow this group as long as they will let me. I know the weather is a pain, I went into my workshop and walked out again, It was that cold in the basement. Someone approached me to cut some aluminum for him. On a test piece, I broke 2 1/8 inch bits before I finally started getting it cut through. Looking at what happened, I was cutting conservatively. I was cutting a 5 3/8 inch circle in 1/8 inch alum. I was cutting 0.01 inches at a time. I think when the bit broke, instead of .01 I went .1 inches. I can't check, but I think this happened because the first 45 degrees was cut through, the rest took about 10 more tries. Either that or the bit dropped down and started cutting that deep.
If I cut the circle for this guy, he may also want me to start cutting out signs.

Its COLD in my shop, So I spent most of my day staying inside. I've been looking for projects to play with on the Legacy and or my Lathe. On the internet today. I want to do some more bone turning, I have already cut out a number of bone disks, I am looking forward to gluing them up into something that I can turn, soon. The problem is What should I make? I don't like pen's! I have already made a number of magnify glass's and other kits type of projects. I have gone to a number of dollar stores and hardware and thrift stores, looking for cheaply made things that can be re-worked. but so far no luck finding anything new. So I thought I would ask you all. Dose anyone know of a nice projects, that you like to make? Family heirloom type of stuff. Perhaps a letter opener? or ??? Any and all ideas are welcome. Looking forward to talking to you all more. Have a good night. C.A.G. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Legacy Ornamental Mills" group.
