Who uses flood coolant on their manual lathe?
Do you get sprayed when using it? Do you waste a lot of coolant.
I was turning some 304 stainless yesterday on the 1440 and everything was going fine until it started to get hot. Then it cooked inserts, and fast.
If you run flood do you stop using insert tooling?
Until now I've just used a cutting oil on the lathe when the cut seemed to act like it needed it.
