    I would suggest putting a stop drill hole at the end of the cur across the diameter, in use that will be a stressed hinge under cyclic load nice place for a fatigue crack to propagate from. Too late now, but hopefully the amount of use the part gets wont be enough to be an issue.

  • @passenger6735
    @passenger6735 Год назад

    OK Keith. Give the W series tools and inserts a go. They're brilliant for interrupted cuts.
    However!... every time you use the plate, it's going to be waving about. For the sake of another two minutes machining you could have faced off the outer side and produced a beautiful looking piece. At some point you may need that outer face to be perpendicular to the machine rotary axis.
    Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
