Thank you for your illuminating post.

Now, I'm trying to turn some fins into a replacement cylinder for a Cox
15. I basically made myself a narrow little cutoff tool, which started
by chattering a little bit, then rapidly evolved to chattering a lot,
then bound up, wrenching the cylinder blank out of the chuck and
breaking the tool.

Since this is a _metalworking_ group, do you have any suggestions about
how I may do thing _metalworking_ task?

Thanks.

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says.
