I particularly like the sound of large amounts of swarf mixed with coolent being made by a large drill opening up a small pilot hole in mild steel….

I need to get out more !

This was made with a face mill:

making an approx 1.5 degree plate to fit under my CNC build so the coolant drains in a predictable way.
