Welp, here's my current PCB fab process. I'm still working out the kinks, so it's always changing. Also, I'm not a video guy, so sorry in advance for the low quality.

POV, using modern carbide tooling on old machines

New endmill day

Designing and Milling a single sided pcb is so much faster and easier than ever messing with perf board for a quick prototype or random circuit I need. Want to shout out this awesome browser based pcb cam software, it’s so much better than flat cam. Its open source cam.eltryus.design/

is this good?

I’ve had this finger brake for exactly 2 hours, and the handle snapped off. 5/8” bolt and MiG to the rescue

I have not been kind to this endmill, it’s singing something fierce

Rate my setup (weldments are a pita)

They came out alright! Time to harden and grind

Fun way to quickly eyeball when you’re cutting a bunch of separate pieces

Cutting some 14c28n stainless

Kickin it old school today on the hardinge

Cnc machine equivalent of training your replacement. Building a new machine with the old one

This should run my t50 stapler, right?

❤️ carbide drills

Peckin away, really should’ve been more aggressive with this cut but I’m not going to bother changing it at this point.

Gettin blasted on a Friday night

Just a friendly reminder, you can sharpen carbide saw blades and save a lot of money

I’m a fan of tool marks, feels like a shame to bead blast them away
