Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] G1006 was Re: Using a porter cable router to cut aluminum

Thanks, Yeah the G1006 is sounding like the
machine to have for a small home garage and still be
able to make some cool stuff. I am going to
Bellingham, Wash. to have a look at the machine. How
do you guys handle cooling? I can see taking breaks
and letting the part cool down or maybe spray it with
WD40 while doing a part manual, but with CNC you would
want the thing to just keep working with out getting
the end mill/part hot.
And yes, I belong to the Mill/Drill group.
