Question: Are you going to retire Fluffy 2? or.... small warning: If I am still an advisor to MLEC, next years drums will be spinning around 50k...maybe more. the ones at this year's nat's were spinning almost 40k. Aircraft earmuffs might be required next year...  | |

we just need to spray coolent, to keep the endmill like teeth from overheating...lol It's all about tip speed....do the math....vs a 7" diameter 2 tooth drum, how fast would you have to spin a 2 1/2" diameter single tooth to get higher tip speed....with the big drum spinning 10 to 15k? | |
