Image not found….just mentioning.

Still there for me, but when I added a full image, that disappeared.
I'm really starting to hate our image problem.
I have one of those which supports your assertion.
EDIT: Mitsubishi literature showing their description: LINK

I’m not wanting to just pile on and complain because I know management is trying hard however I think feedback is helpful to zero in on the problem and to highlight that it is ongoing.
Just for data, the thumbnail shows but the link goes to “not found”. Platform is iPad with latest (perpetually updating….) OS. I have resigned myself to just not clicking the thumbnail any more.
I share the sentiment in your second sentence.

Nice document.
Wouldn't it be great if one of the manufacturers told us exactly what BAP means?
Also, in my quest for knowledge I have discovered that even the kind that look like boring bars are almost always called Face Mills - even if they are very small and only have one flute.
I have one drill that looks like that, but it takes different inserts and they are placed in an offset pattern to enable full surface drilling. It is NOT called a face mill nor does it use APTK Inserts.
Lastly, AI seems to have gotten smarter about this overnight.
I asked Gemini what a BAP300R was in the context of milling.

When you encounter "BAP300R" in the context of milling, it refers to a type of face mill cutter. Here's a breakdown:
Face Mill:
A face mill is a cutting tool used in milling machines to create flat surfaces on workpieces.
It typically has multiple cutting inserts arranged on its face.
BAP300R:
This designation refers to a specific type or series of face mill cutter.
The numbers and letters often indicate dimensions, design features, or the type of inserts it uses.
It is often used with APMT 1135 inserts.
It is a right angle face mill cutter.
In milling this tool is used for operations like:
Surface milling.
Roughing cuts.
Finishing cuts.
Essentially, a BAP300R face mill is a tool designed for efficiently removing material and creating flat surfaces on metal workpieces.

You know, I keep seeing things like that and thinking that “real” industry professionals know what it all means and I’m the noob looking in from the outside and not wanting to speak up and let on how little I know…..

That's we exactly why I am never shy about asking questions. None of us know what we don't know. We just get that bad feeling....
