I have a part made from HT 4140. 4-1/4" dia. After working the front, the part is flipped and all extra material needs to come off.
That is about 0.350 in Z and from 4-1/4" down to 1.18 hole thru the middle.
So, should I take multiple facing cuts down to center line, or take short OD turning steps down to size?
This is a larger part than I normally make, yeah yeah, and I wasn't real happy with chip control on facing, but maybe that was just my insert.
So how would you guys do that?
