What do those of you with horizontal mills do for swarf? I finally
got the Hardinge TM mill cranked up and cutting, and have found the
swarf much more obnoxious than lathe stuff. I probably need to
increase feeds to make bigger chunks, but a shield might contain some
of the mess, too.
I don;'t have a horizontal mill, just vertical, but sometimes use
side milling cutters typical on a horizontal. They DO produce a LOT
of chips quickly! I have made two plexiglas shields that fit around the
table to contain the chips. You have to literally shovel them out after
a while.
