I've made an error turning a customers 12.5" dia x 40" long uhmw plastic roller.
It has a "V" groove every inch (about 38) for the length. The V grooves have a
flat bottom and we roughed them with a dogbone style insert. As we plunged the
center material of the V groove, we cut .250" too deep. Plenty of stock left on
the sides, but the center is too deep. Is there a process with heat, like a
heated roller, that could be used to push the excess material into our mistake?
The area that needs to be filled is roughly a 1/4" square groove.
