I agree with ataxy, there are will be a thousand right ways to do this and a thousand wrong ways, all depending on who you ask. If you would like some ideas that are free, keep checking out the site. There is always an old machinist who has years of experience making something and showing how he did it. For a perfect example, check out the posts by widgitmaster, he is an artist when it comes to metal. His minirouter thread and his lathe turret thread are perfect examples. He also shows how he sets everything up, and what speeds and feeds hes using. I also dont think anyone could dispute how he does it.
P.S. I am not implying that widgitmaster is old, or only old people know how to do things. Figure of speech. |
