I am running a big (for me) job right now

I am making an adaptor for a high speed spindle. It is being made from a 6x1x18" aluminum block. Three tools, 1/2" end mill, for big stuff,



1/4" pointy end carbide mill/drill for engraving, and a 1/4" end mill for making slits.

It is running right now and it is kind of awesome.



I need a chip auger!

Awesome. Post some video clips.

Meant to ask... what did you finally settle on for a high speed spindle?

I'm looking at the Porter Cable 892 for a step up on one of my machines. (Yeah I have two now)

I settled on a Bosch 1617EVS.

I took one with my cell phone.

Just shows you. A guy can never have too many tools.

Or fishing poles.

Or guns.

I have too many fishing poles actually. I really need just two. But I agree about guns.

i

I would give them for free if you were local.
