If you're going to buy the motor along with it, it's going to be much more cost than the colt.

I've heard some decent words about this for engraving so if that's all you'll be doing, it should work nicely for that.

EDIT: just so you realize, you still need to buy a motor to spin it.

I've always seen it as a must to get the chips out, especially with carbide, because they have a tendancy to chip. Once they start chipping/fracturing, it goes downhil fast.

I do most of this kind of work manually, and depending on the size of the job, I just use a handheld blowgun with quick blasts of air, or set up a mister without the coolant to keep the chips out. Unfortunately, this throws chips everywhere as we do not have enclsures around our mill. Whatcha gonna do

Nice, what are they? Look a bit like tap handles.

I'm going to end up passing on this software for now.

Happy New Year, my friend-

I understand about the uninstaller, but what I don't understand is why this needs to be in the programs list to start with for him?

MSS, why not just leave it as the default installation?
