But you need enough feed to "crumple" the chip in
compression. You'll recognize it when you see it.


Ig,
I might add after your last comment about "not pushing your lathe too
hard", that they're designed for that. Don't baby it, or you'll just
wear out tooling and patience prematurely. Time (your time and your
employees') is money.

There's nothin' wrong with smokin' blue chips once in a while.

Very well said!!

Really?

"Hurt" aint the word.

For Liberals, the truth is like salt to a slug.
Sunlight to a vampire.
RaidŽ to a cockroach.
Sheriff Brody to a shark
Bush to a Liberal

The truth doesn't just hurt. It's painful, like a red hot poker shoved
up their ass. Like sliding down a hundred foot razor blade using their
dick as a brake.

They HATE the truth."
