Saves on having to look into the prices of shrink fit holder systems If a rusty oxidized holder taper is the problem along with the spindle taper looking much the same... Freon, would help for an arm strong shrink press fit:eek:

Thanks, I haven't tried any of the WD40 products, I will be putting that on my next shopping list to give it a try. Cost aside really, if it works.

Holly jumpin', N/A.... what compression were you running ? Fuel ? You recall the engine bob weight? Roller of flat tappet ? In the pic above looks like you had the quick release exhaust cut out kit? Did you see the tenths drop further? 10.7 @ 128 through the mufflers is impressive!!! Ok, nuff...

This is where my fun started. Well, the ADD side of things anyway... Automotive deficit disorder I think we called it . Pictures from pictures come in upside down here I guess but, The wife will dig through the engine build pics and time slips to post if nobody screams. I have some cool pics...

That's a loaded question. I think, if you were to ask me on a Monday, then Wednesday and again on Friday, I would have a difference response each day haha. I would have started out with law, then head over to the big bank sector in the mint, a few years in, I'd pick out a nice new ( Few ) suit...

A little over 20lbs, OK. I noticed the chip color, load and formation. I noticed on this project you don't seem to be using coolant;) My guess would be, you will be running lower than 350 RPM in time with different inserts when machining cylinder heads perhaps? Interrupted cuts are a bugger in...

Oh, I'm in the rusting belt alrite.. Although, I think the heated floors in the new shop took care of my surface rust issues. The black oxidization on the holder tapers were more of a heat issue at the time, along with the Briney holders I was using .

I myself, wouldn't use any heat on what your doing. I would toss the bearing races in the freezer for the day and you should be good to go on day 2 for pressing.

My feeling is that my smaller flycutter has too much flex so the extra leverage the tool has causes lifting and chatter. So I think rigidity and sheer mass make a huge difference. I have also read that insert geometry make a difference.--...

If some are seeing rust with black oxidizing on the holders (Taper) and inside the spindle taper on the chinesium stuff. Now would be the time to look into stepping up into better holders. Chances are, the spindle will need attention depending on the tolerances your shooting for.
