So I am trying to replicate the painted tube, just make it longer. I’m using a mini mill with a 3” vise. The tube is 2” OD and 26” long.
im thinking I need to just clamp it to the table and mill each row of slots. Remove, rotate and clamp, repeat. However, I do t think the spacing would be that accurate.
so then I was thinking i need to acquire and use a rotary table with a Chuck. I then would be able to space the slots accurately and would be quicker than clamping to table.
thoughts?
