Hi,
Quite new to this forum and still quite undeveloped in the engineering realm, but i was just thinking...
If i wanted to turn with a milling machine e.g. Mount round bar in the spindle chuck and and manually feed the spindle onto a stationery secured tool, say in a vice at the correct cutting angle would this work. And if it does what experiences have you had with it? Does it generate good tolerances and retain concentricity? I would expect the swarf to evacuate better. Any thoughts?
Obviously this is not for a batch production scenario, but if i wanted to create components using this method without having to buy two machines is this feasible?
Thanks for any input
