I am currently working on (shorts)
Midschoolfool:
Thanks man.
Well it turned out the acetal nylon sheet is not cast but extruded. That means.....
melty melty :LolLolLolLol:
The first 1.4mm bit snapped and then that happened with a 3mm bit. It isn't removing it, just melting it, so I need to cut it manually.
I will dig out my hacksaw in a bit and crack on with that.
Midschoolfool:
Mang this stuff is an absolute shit head to work with. It melts when you get it even remotely warm, and it's so sodding slippery its a shit bag to cut manually :LolLolLolLol:
I do now have a block, but this has all thrown up an issue I never knew I had. Why in the fudge does the spindle motor on my machine refuse to run any slower? Just did some investigating and it seems no matter what I set the speed to it's not having it. It's either all on (20,000 RPM ffs) or off.
Midschoolfool:
Back to the loft. Floor construction now finished, but I could murder my cousin. Entire sub floor was pissed, so that turned into a real pain.
I then grew tired of losing 3mm drill bits down the gaps, so when the back floor (against the wall) was finished I taped off all the gaps.
Next up, lino planks (self adhesive ones). Should be much easier than that building shit, that's for sure !
Midschoolfool:
Sub floor finished.
Midschoolfool:
Main floor is all but done. Two pieces left to fit, but I tapped out having to continually move crap around.
As you can see, it's a lot.
