The T-Slot cutter made from an old truck axle proved out nicely and seems no worse for
wear than when I started this project. First I made a number of passes with a 5/8 inch 2 flute
HSS end mill and then followed that with the T-Slot cutter. I have had this big chunk of
steel for a few years and added the middle slot in it just yesterday. Also one does not ever
seem to have enough T-Nuts so made 10 of them so I have a supply. Here's a couple photos
of the work.
