they let the hot air out this helps, should bring the temp down to 82 to 85 degrees instead of 95 to 100 as it is now.

Bill, Have you thought about installing a surplus military camouflage net over your shop roof? That will break us the sun's rays so you get a lot less direct heat - while leaving the air space between the roof and the camo material in the netting for air to pass through - taking with it any " heat" trapped there. I do not recommend putting a tarp over the shop - since that likely will trap a lot of the hot air - massing it between the roof and the tarp material. We experience that problem with a "pop-up shelter called an "EZ -Up". Just a thought. Stay cool & Safe!

A wood pellet burner works along the same lines. When fuel runs scarce you need to find a new source of heat when its cold out. In the US large amounts of corn are not used for other products, (for a number of reasons.) burning corn that is for most context, waist products. in these areas, Corn is cheaper then wood, coal, or natural gas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYtNJCmKHjs YouTube has a lot of videos on this topic.

I don’t know much about cnc cutting of aluminium but I did machine it in the old days when I was an engineer machinist. I do know cutting lubricant was paramount the best I found believe it or not was wd 40. cutting it dry or with only a little lubricant the aluminium would build up on the cutter, tool or drill and cause it to jam and break, flooding the tool was the best it usually cut very well that way as for feed rate that depended on the cut light cuts you could go faster heaver cuts slower as with any machining now after saying all that I have never milled aluminium with a bit as small as 1/8 but the principle would be the same I would think.

Bill I have a Shark HD3. I was using a 1/8 inch router bit. Before every cut, I used some threading oil that I placed on the Aluminum. I used my compressor to blow air at the router bit to clear chips and help to cool the bit. The chips that I created were too small, for my next cut, I intend to speed up the travel from 20 inch per minute to 30 or 40 inches per minute. My router speed was at 10,000 rpm and I don't know if I should speed if up or not. I'm watching a lot of videos on speeds and feeds. It creates a mess with the aluminum chips. I plan on making like a 1 or 2 inch fence around the piece to try to keep the waste in one place. I was thinking about getting a mister, but after talking with someone familiar with cutting metal with a mister said that it creases a mess and not to let it hit MDF and to have the place properly ventilated. My spoilboard is MDF and my basement have 3 windows that I really don't open. Any advice on cutting aluminum would be greatly appreciated.

Good morning Harvey, Yea great to have you here and I'm pretty sure everyone will continue to welcome all your input and presence. So with the bit slipping or what ever may have happened I was running an angle on my LOM 1200 here a week ago and my clamping failed right toward the tail end of the milling and of course the damage went beyond being able to save the transition thresh hold. I wrecked the piece but not the bit. The bit vibrated so much that, that's what caused my problem. Sounds like yours was a little different mishap but seems this does happen from time to time. I was spinning a large 1 1/2 dia. older bit. I finished to next transition strip on the table saw. customer needed it asap and I was't taking chances until I had a better bit and clamping design.

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.

I hope everyone is well? 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.
