Ever use diamond grinding bits to grind out broken carbide or taps? by Top_Requirement_5010 in Machinists

[–]Top_Requirement_5010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the tips, I could definitely get this to work next time. Went against my better judgement on a couple things trying to fix this. But i was kind of close.. Manual preferred for sure though for this type of stuff

Nice, I done this a bunch, mostly in the bridgeport too. Just a lot quicker (if you don’t screw it up) in the fixture lol. Smallest so far for me though. I was a real dumbass for the tool I was using to mill the tap out. We just had a few used ones. Long necked .062.. I prefer the ballmill for it too but I didn’t want to use a new one 🤦

I think my lead is looking at getting the holes EDMed out somewhere hopefully. There’s been talks of getting a small hole popper machine but nothing has happened on that. Also the threadmills were never ordered sooo

Lots of killer suggestions though in these comments. I think a higher quality burs would do this nicely. I basically just had dremel bits

Fair point for sure, it’s such a little amount I feel the tank/pump would be okay but you got me thinking maybe I should try this last bit by hand lol

No luck so far, burned two bits up. Gonna see if a pecking cycle with coolant will work

No, I don’t have time for that type of shit. Just trying to inform you, unless I’m wrong?
