TOADMILL: 4 AXIS CNC HOME BUILT MILLING MACHINE
Test cutting 1″ 6061 aluminum round stock on the 4th Axis Homemade Milling Machine. Not sure why on Darth Vader’s front portion of the helmet had a rougher finish compared to other portions. Didn’t hear any chatter. I wonder if it is because of the rotary change of direction. If anyone knows why, shoot off a comment below.
