I had an email from a customer last week, wanting to know if I could produce a 16-finish on 6061 aluminum, with the planer. I replied, "probably not."
The customer later said that he would send a sample piece over, and to plane it, then he would test it on his profilometer. I ran the piece, reduced the feed-rate way down, and sent it back to him. He called later, and said after checking it three times, it registered "9" on his tester. Good to know.
