hello,
How can I make an internal 6 side in alluminium?
I have make an sketch (in mm.) from the idea in autocad:
(click for enlarge the picture and when the link is opened, click again on the picture)
the point is, I have to make it without a milling machine!
I can make it with a lathe, but i don't have a milling machine.
I was thinking.. i can drill some smal holes on every point on the internal 6 side.
than turn the circel in the 6side so far as possible?
and the rest with handtools?
i mean this way:
first the green small holes, and than turning out the big hole? than the handtools?
or is there a trick for doing things like this?
thanks!
greetings from Holland
