Cutting Stainless Steel
Hi, I need to cut some stainless steel, it is really thin (0.5 mm) but im having trouble with the bits.
I have the manufacturers recomended bit but the problem is that the cutting length is about 11 meters so the bit gets really hot even with a mister at full power, and the bit only lasts 1 or maybe 2 of the 11 meter pieces and its getting really expensive... any suggestions to how to fix this? thank you very much |

What part of the MM are you making from Stainless? Normally cold or hot rolled is used.

Daniel, do you have a MechMate? This forum is for MM builders and the MM is not designed for cutting stainless steel.
