I've heard that flood cooling can rust the machine, if not all of it is cleaned off... is this true? How are the shavings separated from the coolant? Does the coolant have to be replaced everytime after cutting?
I don't know if I want to get too complicated yet.... I'd really like something simple to start off with, like the xylotex 3 axis single board thingy. What about HobbyCNC boards? have any of you guys used them? Will TCNC work with the xylotex/hobbyCNC boards?
Thank for the input. |
