CNC FAN
​First CNC Project

Date:  11-17-2000

The finished fan after  7 hours of trying :)  Here are some of the first cuts! Beautiful! I mounted the aluminum on the mill by gluing a "Jenga" piece and having the vise hold it.  More cutting and more chips! Trying to keep them out was a huge task. I flooded the area with WD-40 for coolant and it smelled great :):)

Here you can see the machine cutting "CNC" into the center of the fan using a different endmill.

Here are all of the 3 trials! The first one was too thin and cracked. The second one, the cutter went off the path and cut right through the fins. The third one was the charm :)
