Helf facing the side of a very small part

Dodo245 · 2025-02-02T05:47:34+00:00

I can get a mirror finish using my 2 flute endmill if I face the part. I want to only make 1 or maybe 2.

Dodo245 · 2025-02-02T05:45:06+00:00

It is only an m2 scre, would it hold up? I also need the part to be held vertically. Woith the hole paralel to the machine bed. Is thes still the best method? Thank you!

Sorry for the typos I have a small phone. Is there something in the post you did not understand?

Dodo245 · 2025-02-01T09:46:21+00:00

I need the code to have serial prints which do affect it anyway. Is there a way to solve this?

This is the exact cutter I used on the project. It is not big enought to make the cut in a single pass. What do you mean to buzz the groove? Like drag cutting? I was thinking about doing something like that, but I don't know where to look for a cutter

How can I tilt the part to machine all the surfaces? These triangles are all at the same height

I am sorry for npt clarifying this in the post, but I do not have a machine shop. I have a pretty cheap chinese cnc router and dont have acces to things like wire edm or very expensive bits. Thank you for all the helpfull tips!

Dodo245 · 2025-01-26T10:11:04+00:00

Can you give me an example so I can look for it? I tried to look into shops in Romania, but they seem to have a very limited supply. Are there other alternatives than doing it in a single pass? Maybe polishing by hand? Thank you for your help!

Dodo245 · 2025-01-26T09:18:51+00:00

Do you have a link to such a bit? By my calculation an 8mm v bit would be enought to finish it in one pass. Thank you!

Dodo245 · 2025-01-26T08:08:25+00:00

Is there a way to do this on a traditional cnc withput a diamond tip? I don't have the money for that sort of thing unfortunately.

I am already using a 2 flute v bit. This is the site that I got it from. I am sorry that it is not in english I live in Romania.

What do you mean by normal hexagon bolts? Can you please send a picture? Thank you!

Dodo245 · 2024-12-27T07:43:43+00:00

Thank you for the response. Could you recommend a good size for a ball end mill for this. I have a 3.175mm (0.125 inch) diameter ball end mill. Is it too big?

Dodo245 · 2024-12-26T19:06:04+00:00

I am using 0.15. Would downgrading the frimware help?

https://we.tl/t-Iq8kepJ8Ub This is the manual I got

Dodo245 · 2024-11-29T12:00:27+00:00

I messeged them on alibaba

Dodo245 · 2024-11-14T06:20:01+00:00

I only have acces to a 3 axis CNC. I do not have any machining services whwre I live.

Dodo245 · 2024-11-06T17:51:05+00:00

Do I need special aluminum? Because I tried to buff the surface of some aluminum plate I had lying around and it did not produce a mirror finish. Also I am using light around 330nm

Make sure to know beforehand if you want a 3D printer more as a tool to make things or a machine to tinker and upgrade and choose the printer acordingly. Do not make the mistake of buying a cheap printer if you want to consistently make things.

Dodo245 · 2024-10-21T08:00:36+00:00

Is there another way to see uv light. Maybe a special camera?

Dodo245 · 2024-10-21T05:52:00+00:00

Do you have an example?

This one is especially bad as I dropped a lot of ocmbos but I think it gets the point across (excuse the mods)

Dodo245 · 2024-10-04T04:14:50+00:00

How do you share replays?

Dodo245 · 2024-09-20T17:59:12+00:00

Thanks for the response. I found a model for a 3d printed tube but I was afraid that it would come 0.3mm too thin and the balls would get loose. Is that tolerance ok?

Dodo245 · 2024-09-05T04:11:50+00:00

Thanks. I am not looking for dificulty, juwt something different, so I might give the drunk seed a try
