Well....
My son in law machinist showed up the other day.
He sat me straight on a few things.
The mill is doing just what it is designed to do.
It is not designed for what I was doing.
Full cutter at .200" is NOT what this machine was designed to do.
Hmmm who would have thought.
I was reminded that this is a small mill to do small things in a small way.
I was told to keep the mill and learn to use it. There is nothing wrong with the mill just the operator.
Well, I guess will keep this mill after all.
