Cutting Speed and RPM on the Lathe and Mill
#19
Darren,

I'm debating the value of a feed rate video for the hobby machinist. I can show how to calculate the feed rate based on chip load and rpm, but most powered feeds on home machines are either variable or non-existent. I can't remember the last time I calculated a feed rate and then actually applied it. It's more "that sounds about right" or "the color of the chips is good".
