Turning some 304 SS parts, my Omniturn doesn't really like this stuff.
Maybe don't have the best part off tool for the material, but using what
I got. Parting off at low rpm, high flood coolant flow, and this allows
a lot of coolant to get through the slots in the collet face. Seldom
have this trouble at high rpm...

Fixed it with a couple dabs of oil based modeling clay packed into the
slots. Works perfect, easily removed when done.

That is quick and cheap. Nice, on topic, idea. You earn an atta boy, 999 more gets you a
breakfast at Denny's. One aw chit wipes the scoring slate clean so you know.
