    wow, lol playing with fire trying to make that tiny end mill ramp that whole thing. i would actually try to slot that with the biggest end mill i could fit, or do an adaptive inside of it to make a trochoidal tool path. while the trochoidal may take more time in some situations, i find it a more reliable process being significantly easier on the tools. my general rule for trochoidal slotting is having a slot that is 3/2 * Diameter or a tool that is 2/3 * slot width. i will feed it as deep as i can and adjust my stepover, smaller axial cut, larger stepover, at a depth of 1*D im usually running a 45% step over, at 1.5*D im at 30%, 2*D 20%, 2.5*D 13%, 3*D 9% and so on. whats important is being mindful of your chip load. you have to ensure that it doesnt drop too low.

    This is a great series! You've come a long way in CNC
    As fun as the adventure choosing is, I'd say put it all in one video, it's a bit distracting needing to swap and check for the behind the scene videos

    Ave I'm glad you got into this. Where do you get your tools and tool holders.
