Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Electrode holder

Hi Richard:
I have a mag chuck mounted in the worktank.
That takes up a good 3" of space.
I am also taking delivery of a Gromax orbiter sometime next week.
That will eat up another 6" or so.
I might end up a bit short!!
I've been clamping short jobs to an angle plate or sticking them up on mag
blocks.
I tend not to flood the tank, I usually stick a bit of plastic pipe around
the job to make a minitank.
Most of my burns are tiny; I do a fair bit of moldwork, but I try to stay
below a moldset size of 10" x 10".
I mill everything I can and go to EDM only as a last resort.
Cheers

Marcus
