Gents.
The cutter od is 1.740 x 17 teeth per inch x .007 my mistake, but my rpm i said was correct.
Yes i cut the first cut as you see it in the first photo I pushed the Y Axis away from where the operator stands, i plunged it.
The sacrifice taper pin is a store purchased N03 steel pin.
The bed was locked on the Y axis anticipating climb-milling, but correct me if i am wrong if your not feeding the part to the cutter how would climb milling take place?
Indexing the collet block 180D was the right move next, for the life of me i do not know why i did it
doing this i had to re-set the clocks and other stuff i just made my life harder.
Kroil is a rust / nut-breaker product but its very slippery and i use it on Ali all the time with good results. I agree the coolant had a major roll in busting the blade.
Well since we now have the full picture i am going to make another one and attempt this again, i have another blade identical to the original, i will purchase some water coolant product and give this another go, all suggestions are welcome.
Thanks to all for the comments so far.
