Shop update, carbon fiber, glow Media
Published: 12 years ago
Here's a quick update, I know I haven't posted a video in a while! My milling machine has been down for repairs and upgrades the past 2 weeks, but now it's finally working again. In this video I introduce my brother Erik who will be working with me from now on. The two of us have spent the past few days working like crazy making a ton of Emerson CQC7 aluminum handles, Manix 2 glow in the dark handles, and Manix 2 carbon fiber and lightning strike carbon fiber handles. In my last video "RoboCNCnl" suggested that I use flood coolant to help control the dust while machining carbon fiber, so I tried it out and it worked great! I mixed up a new batch using mostly water with just a bit of oil in it so my machine doesn't rust instantly. Then after the machining was done we hosed the table down into yet another bucket. Also last week we cleaned the shop A LOT. It might not look very organized yet but trust me, it was a cluttered mess before and we couldn't even walk around very well.
