It's been a while since I posted the question on machining Garolite G 10, and tips were helpful. Now we've graduated to G-11. Presently researching diamond tooling? It will be 12 in. dia. , 1 " thick on lathe. Must take most of the material out inside, about .960 deep...
Does anyone have any tips on machining Garolite? Specifically G10/ FR4 . Will have to tap 6-32 - Also need to machine to size on 1" thick. I realize carbide is a must at minimum, and am wondering about diamond tooling, and also coolants and tapping fluids. All info greatly appreciated.
