I wanted to make a CNC coolant proof camera lens. I tried to make an air bearing and failed, but a clean roller bearing works great!

    The new guy suggested rainex on the lathe window. I told him I doubt it, but I don't know everything so let's try it. He grabbed a can from his truck, we cleaned the window with denatured alcohol, let it dry, and did several applications of rainex. It didn't make a damn bit of difference. I had assumed the coolant being basically dilute glycol would behave like soap and would wet to just about any surface.

    Balls are pretty blue here, bud.

    Did this never go anywhere? Is there an update yet? It's only been like a year or whatever, but I NEED closure … when you get the chance.

    An addendum to your comments early on. Most are not skilled in critical thinking. 90% of ideas are garbage. Most do not think about the thinking. Ya gotta look at it and discern how it can turn on it's head or have the opposite result. Also how it could potentially critically fail causing a big ol mess.

    What about a powerful fan to create a cone of pressure around the camera lens?

    You're making too much work out of a simple design.
    Make a Tesla turbine with 2 pieces of glass and use air to spin them. SOLVED
