Machining some titanium and making a mess.
As much of a mess subtractive manufacturing can make, it can be oddly satisfying to clean up all the chips. Whether it’s in a big Matsuura, Mori Seiki, or Makino with a dedicated, high powered wash down hose, or a little Haas OfficeMill with a just a shop vacuum, cleaning up all the chips has always been somewhat therapeutic at the end of the day. This part has about an 85% reduction in weight from raw billet stock to completed part, so there were lots of chips to vacuum up. Anyone else find it fun to wash down their machine or vacuum up chips?
