Cutting steel magnified and slowed down

admin

Hey all.I'm not sure where to post this but this section of the forum seemed to be the best spot and if not, oh well.It's been quite some time since I have posted something. Rest assured that I frequent the site on an almost daily basis. I am not someone that comments on everything...I am more the silent type and I really don't have much to offer this web site in the sense of knowledge to pass along to other welders and metal workers.  I was brought up with the...If you don't have anything good to say or to offer then silence is best. But, today I fell upon a little video that I found quite interesting and boring at same time which may help someone understand what is going on when you are milling/cutting metal. It may help you understand why when you try to cut certain types of steel your resulting finished product has a rough or smooth finish to it and you may see other things than I. The music which is quite, well, lets just say it's not music most metal workers listen to...lol. Watch the vid and you'll comprehend what I mean...lol.What I liked about the video was how it shows different metals being cut and how the metal reacts to the cutting tool.This video may have been posted here on Weldingweb.com before but I haven't seen it here. So if it has, please excuse me.Any way have a look at the vid, it's pretty much self explanitory and if anyone has any info on this please enlighten us and enjoy the music ...lolhttp://www.wimp.com/cuttingsteel/
