I'm working on a fixture for some parts I run all the time. I am thinking of running them from a 12" bar of 5/8"sq. 1018 CD Steel rather than cut them into 1.5" blanks.
I need to break the blanks from the bar which means I need to mill a slot.
I'm running it on a BT30 Brother Speedio so take that into consideration on recommendations.
I guess I'm trying to figure out if a full slot thru, stepped slots thru, trochoidal mill the slot or what have you would be the fastest.
thanks for your ideas.
