Turned Acrylic Video
Thursday, June 11th, 2009Here is a video of East Coast’s
This is the machining of the part we first featured on the blog a week or so ago. The process for other materials is very similar. We chose acrylic because the chip we produced was easy to blow off with a blast of air. Other materials would require cutting fluids and would have made it difficult to record and see clearly. Hope you enjoy.
UPDATE: It has come to my attention that the sound track to the video was quite obnoxious. Problem fixed. Apparently, youtube offers stock music for videos you upload. Pretty Cool.

Turned Acrylic Example
Monday, June 1st, 2009This is an example of some of the Acrylic work we can do in our lathe department.
This part has a few different features. The front face has a knife edge where it blends with the inside diameter. It also has a 3 barbs machined on the outside diameter. There is also a groove and contouring on the rest of the OD.
The inside diameter is drilled thru and features a counterbore on the knife edge (end facing up)
