Disco

[DRAGOONRANCH]

looks like abrasive discs have too much deflection
flycutters are cheap so I ordered one and some inserts, J&L does free next day air so sick fab should be happening this weekend.

Does that thing get up enough speed for them to actually work? What about a regular grinding disk?

take video when you use it b/c I think parts will fly! I bet that drill press has a few thousandths end play in all directions (up/down right/left). It is gonna snag like a hang nail!
I would modify the grinding disc...maybe some kind of steel backing to get rid of the deflection? are there any metal diamond/carbide metal grinding disc.
I would have tried an end mill first.
what size flycutter did you get?
anyways, good luck!

maybe one of these w/ a 1/4" backer plate, run a bolt through the middle hole to clamp the backing to the disc. use the excess bolt to chuck it into the drill press.

I would think that it would end up bieng too thick, and you would be limited to only half the wheel as you would end up hitting the bolt head. On some regular angle grinder grinding disks, they have the recess to keep the mounting hardware up out of the way. The way you talked about the bolt would be real good w/ one of these and you could grind some of the bolt head down if you needed so it would clear.


EDIT: Looking at that picture again, some of those may have a recessed hole in them.

picked up some d2 spring isolators today from awesome auto salvage

if there is a car avalanche involving a toyota stacked on top of a disco wobbling on a ford crown vic scissor jack I had nothing to do with it.

That is an awesom mental picture.

that sounds a little bit like the rotor "discus" through the windshiled olympics we had there last time. . . that you had nothing to do with.

never been an exocage fan, but this one isn't completely hideous, and I wouldn't have had to turn around on that one trail with the low hanging tree at Gilmer. I'm assuming the A and B pillars extend to the frame through the inside like the SD d90 cage

Thoughts? (not that it matters )

For a Disco, thats pretty cool looking. Very clean exo.
