Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Deburring/Polishing Aluminum

Hi Rob:
I used to tumble small parts by putting them into a plastic jar,
chucking it in the lathe, and letting it run for a couple of hours on the
slowest back gear setting. I used stainless steel hexnuts as the tumbling
medium.
It was cheap and worked well.
Cheers
Marcus
