I'd do things with the Benchmaster that I'd never even think about with a little chicom mill.RT is the first Russian 24/7 English-language news channel which brings the Russian view on global news.Previous (Sumerian Civilization). It's heavy, and solid for its size, not to be compared to some chicom-built mill drill or mini-mill. Overkill for the size machine it is, and unlikely to even "resent" occasional use with a fly cutter. I have a Benchmaster as one of the mills here, and it has a big nose bearing, that IIRC is somewhere around 3" OD. Bearings (and even machines) are something of a "consumable" item, replaced as a matter of maintenance.Īnd it depends on the machine. A commercial shop will do a LOT more work than the occasional clean-up of a piece of metal. If you don't get reasonably deep, you will be "rubbing" on the scale, which will dull your cutter in a hurry, and impose more load.Īs for trashing bearings. Still do-able, but some more of a strain. 005 finish cut or the same DOC with same tool used to both remove the mill scale and minor pitting from the metal in the same pass.If you want to do the clean-up pass, you are going to have to go deeper than 3 thou. Mochinist, while I'm on your side in terms of heavier cuts I'm not sure I see much of a difference between a. There are some nice homemade tools in that thread, some are facemills and some are flycutters based on how I was taught, not looking to argue or go find an official definition. I was taught in trade school that a flycutter had a single point tool and if it had more than one cutting edge, it’s a facemill. I hadn't seen the “show me your flycutter” thread and just went and looked through it. There are just better options for roughing or removing scale if you care at all about your machinery.
Like I said, they are great for finish passes and have their place in just about any machine shop(we really dont use classic flycutters at work, we just remove all but one insert from our existing facemills), they are also a great student project to make. We liked machinist/machine shops that insisted on using air to blow off their machines and insisted on using their shop class built fly cutters in their bridgeports, kept us busy. I worked for a machine repair company for years before going 100% into prototype machining. Others, as seen here on the forum, are almost face mills, and would not have the problems you mention.if it’s a “single point” fly cutter, large, small, stout, not stout, whatever, it is bad to use for roughing on a Bridgeport or smaller sized mills spindle and will eventually trash your bearings. Some of the weak ones with the bit sticking way out may not be great. But possibly as a dual cutter if I can figure out a good way to position the second cutter to match the first. However I do see using a flycutter or perhaps one of the smaller shell mills as a way to both remove mill scale and at the same time face off a surface as part of the initial squaring up of a block before moving on to the rest of the fabrication.īased on the ideas in the "show me your flycutters" thread I'm leaning towards the idea of using the fairly useless four brazed cutter head that came with the mill and convert it over to my own shop made holders that accept APKT inserts. And when I want to remove a lot of thickness I tend to go with a two flute 1/2" end mill.
I know that my own baby knee mill would not be at all happy with a deeper roughing cut. And earlier in the thread a lot of us tended to agree that it takes a pretty stocky mill to handle the loads of a moderate or larger face mill. And by big mill standards even a B'port is seen as a bit of a toy. A lot of us have mills that are on the smaller side of a Bridgeport or bigger.
