    Machine Arcdroid

    My thoughts are that it’s portable and small enough to not eat up a gantry size footprint. I have had several gantry cnc routers and like how they work, but for a machine that’s not used every day,it has merit. My concern is it’s durability and how well it runs.

    Machining fun

    Sounds like you have a good thing going there,I’m sure you will be fine. An annular stock cutter would have been a dream. I like your idea of getting one ground , or use the most worn out lathe in the shop and let the run out get you there. Lol.

    Tool Coolant fix

    Not wanting to run full coolant because of the minimal use thing. I was leaning to a misting set up. Most of my turning and milling are done with a small brush and oil, but on some big 4140 pins I just did a misting setup would have been beneficial I think. Thoughts? And recommended setups?
