Hay All
So I got a bug up my butt and decided to hook up the flood coolant on my Cincinnati tool master milling machine. First let me say wow what a difference it made .500 4 flute end mill .300 depth of cut spindle @ 480 .750 IPM in steel just as sweet as could be, I really think I could have feed it @1.100 IPM and the finish is really nice.
But How do some of you deal with the mess? My table drains well but of course there are the pockets and the vise that holds the coolant I would hate to have to pull the vise every time and clean it then re square any advice or tips?
I am just using a water based coolant that is sold at Napa I have seen what some coolants do to machines and how grungy the coolant gets when it dries.
Thanks
Dave
