the only thing wrong is the grooves in its head. they traditionally have flat bottoms. they were done round here to save time, as simply one mill is needed to make just one pass this way.

sexy machine :p
-
why didnt you part it off instead of taking it out ,band saw, rechuck and face , would have saved lots of time

i come here for the music

after reading the comments , i went to timcallister74's channel to see how an expert does it,and what a surprise-no vid-just mouth !!!!!

@tmcallister74 Yet it worked ..... so all your "knowledge" is pointless.... what you use is irrelevant as long as it works in the end. i really doubt his pieces had to be to tolerance.... real machinists can make things with the what ever tools they want.(Sorry i hate "know it alls", most of them lack common sense because they are stuck on whats proper)

@GlacernMachineTools what was the sample material?.. if you dont mind me asking..
and was that carbide tooling?
REALLY clean pieces. and beautiful cut on the collet ;)

i wanna see it do a knight :D

I made several chess sets out of aluminum using square bar stock. Each 48' bar was milled using the straddle mill technique. Then the bar was turned on its side to give it that particular identification, whether it was a knight or pawn. Then each piece was cut to length, sanded to break sharp corners, polished and painted on the top signifying whether it was black or white. It is very time consuming.

why would you dislike this -_-
Cool part, I couldn't help but notice the machines sub spindle wasn't used to grip the part and cut it off from the bar stock. Instead it was cut on a band saw and re-chucked with new jaws just to face it off.

This demo part was originally programmed for a similar machine with a tailstock instead of a subspindle. The program and soft jaws were migrated to the NL2500SY for video purposes only.
Due to time constraints, no modifications were made to the programs.
