Along with the classical ones, there are quite unusual - original methods of milling, one of which we will discuss in this article. First of all, you need to take a piece of ebonite, drill a hole of the desired diameter in it, and then cut a round washer.
Then, from the cutter, which will be used for milling wooden blanks, it is necessary to remove the bearing and press it into the drilled hole. Landing should be tight enough.
After mounting the bearing, it is necessary to give the round washer an oval shape. This can be done on a grinding machine. So that the washer itself does not slip during the milling process, it is necessary to glue the edge with a strip of sandpaper.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, install the ebonite washer on the cutter, after which you can already proceed directly to the milling of the board or other workpiece. Please note: so that the puck does not rub against the surface of the tree, but rolls, you need to set small revolutions on the manual milling cutter.
As a result, with the help of such a “drunken” cutter, you can get a very unusual (at least - non-standard pattern). In order for the cutter to not “jump”, the radius of the oval should be smoother. This must be taken into account.
We recommend you watch the video on our website, which clearly shows an unusual way of milling using a "drunk" cutter. Write in the comments what you think about this innovation in carpentry.
