For quite some time I’ve been wanting to work with alloy and steel rods to fabricate some components/tooling, after having spoken to some local fabricators or engineering companies and been given qoutes for the work that are crap/turd x retarded = returded.
I’ve decided to buy my own lathe/milling machine as well as a bench saw and extraction equipment, I’ve worked with some lathes in the past, mostly wood turning, however I’m not without some experience.
That said I don’t know much about metal working, can anyone tell me the best kind of saw for cutting steel and alloy rods and tubes accurately, also will an emco unimat SL or 3/4 be enough for machining up small alloy and steel components about 10 to 30mm lenth 10 to 40mm diameter.
Not sure if anyone can help with advice but I might as well ask.
