Hi Guy's,
after some advice. Have got my 1980's era Cincinnati 2MK up and running and have smoked a couple of end mills so need to get some coolant sorted. The machine is designed for cutting oil I believe, but what's the opinion on using some sort of coolant. On my other machine I use a water soluble oil but Im worried about the water getting into the ways. The mill have a lubrication system be I think half the flow regulator things are blocked so Im manually oiling at the moment.
Thanks,
Ian.
