On a steep learning curve

Lol... Haas is seriously overated. You have to pay through the nose for absolutely everything.

Heat treatment is very important. No point wasting all that precious cnc time if you end up with a product that looks nice but doesnt perform :-)

cheers.

I don't know, I'm partial to a little Furnace Porn now and again, heat treat, forge or casting ;-)

The Haas is being fed by a 3-phase convertor in a room at the end of an old calving barn with a shetland pony as a neighbour. I think it is probably pining for a nice smart, factory ...

You need to get out more before you start getting partial Shetland Ponys. . :hopelessness:

Laurie what model, year etc is the Haas.?

It's a Super Mini Mill - most recent model as of about 4 months ago when we ordered it!
