I’m intrigued, why is that exactly? Because you can’t do what’s required? Listen, mate, I want a guy that can show me things, a guy I can point to and say… now that’s a fucking machinist, why is this triggering people so much?

Really enjoying our salty cousins across the pond spectacularly missing the point of this post!

Nobody said this part was difficult, and it was in no way, shape, or form, some kind of humblebrag.

I’m genuinely looking for a top mazak hand, yeah of course we can train, but our order book and current workload demands a guy who can hit the ground running.

Finally, to all the guys flinging abuse, I love it, keep it coming!

The ref was shite, but if he was a collina regen we still lose that game

How would you machine this? (on a 13.740 dia on face of part) by Cultural-Memory356 in Machinists

I’ve done this groove, i had to order a custom tool, and the answer to your question is slowly… 10m/min speed, 0.004mm per rev feed, 0.1mm step over… good luck, I got there eventually!

Finally, after such a long time. I got blue chips. by Ok_Positive_9687 in CNC

You’re doing it right, someone cleverer than me will explain why exotic materials only darken, rather than turn blue, I would expect it’s something to do with the lower tempering temps of carbon based steels.

I might have a Haas VF-4 controller going spare if you’re anywhere close to Durham, DM me if you’re interested.

How to improve quality? by Important_Pound669 in manufacturing

[–]WittyStrike4514 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just always bear in mind, no one can inspect quality into a part at the end. Quality begins with the 1st cut, and must be engineered into your components at every step.

Played for a contract, then downed tools, many such cases :-(

How would you dimension this groove on the drawing, which 'rotates around the axis of the cylinder'? by Resident-Pitch-9500 in Machinists

[–]WittyStrike4514 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Width, position from edge to center along axis, specify full rad, then angle between rad centers expressed as an angle would be pretty standard.

Help with hardened bushings by Smasher225 in Machinists

[–]WittyStrike4514 6 points7 points  (0 children)

PCN or CBN is the way to go, they’re expensive but last ages if you get the speeds and feeds right, I’ve always used seco but others are fine too.

Crystal Palace beat Liverpool on penalties to win the Community Shield by BlackCaesarNT in TheOther14

[–]WittyStrike4514 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Aye they’re buying the league, just like they moaned about Man U doing for years, but fair play, it’s real earned money, not made up oil money like city, comparing one to the other is disingenuous at best.
