Movie Theater Kin

Maggot
Just caught it on Youtube. Most of its kind of the same old, good but not great. The ending is worth the watch. The main character, a young black kid, is really good, and James Franco makes a contemtable villian. I think Franco is one of the better actors of today's group. Check him out in The Illusionist.

I'm making these pins right now out of stainless. Customer needed 20 pcs ASAP, and an additional 180 afterwards. Got the first 20 done and handed off to the boss, now working on the rest.

Running as a bar job in a collet chuck. Cutting the angle on the end, then the grooves, then cutting off into a parts catcher (which the part will occasionally miss, I need to figure that out lol).

Probably will drop the RPM's on the cut-off so it drops straight down instead of slinging it into the chip trough.

If you have a bar feeder it will be different. But summary is:
Part off normally until 5mm diameter, slowly rpm down to 300, and slow feed rate also. Go 1mm past centre (face off), and part should fall easily and not be thrown into some place you will never find.
Speed chuck back up, pull tool out, coolant off, get tool out the way, then stop.

Insert gcode or macro for parts catcher and bar feeder.

Replace your g96 surface speed to what's appropriate.

WTB WTB / WTT for Nightforce NXS Mildot

jmar
Looking for a couple scopes for some clone stuff. I'm fine with buying one for a decent price or can give you a good deal on some trades.
Looking only for SFP mildot reticles and highly prefer Mil adjustments. Looking for: NXS - 5.5-22x56mm, and NXS - 8-32x56mm.

I have a US Optics FDN FX10 that's basically new. And a slightly worn Bushnell elite tactical for trade, I'll include their original new values and some pics of the actual optics. Illumination works on both. The US optics is cool because it is fully made in the USA!

Approx value of used US Optic: $1600
Approx value of used Elite Tactical $900

Anyone using a Wahoo Kickr with Zwift??

I just got one with Cog and click and threw me hardtail Trek on it. Im loving it!

Its 95-100F and 95% humidity here this time of year and its been downpouring almost every day for a few hours so trails have been too muddy.

This thing is awesome and kicked my ass again today.
