No shredder blades on mine. I have a pto driven chipper on a JD 1025R tractor. There's four blades on the rotary wheel. The blades are 150x50mm and about a half inch thick. They are reversible so there are two bevels on each blade. I've researched a lot of mills and I like what I see on the LMS 4190. I hope you're right about finding uses for it, because I'm scared to death it might end up as an expensive garage ornament.
You consider 50x150x one-half inch a large project? Please explain, because I don't. Buy what you can afford has always been my philosophy and then some. But I'm trying to be careful here, because I don't want my dear wife getting mad at me for squandering our money. If I can justify the purchase, she'll be mollified a bit.
Hope you're right on finding uses for it. My chipper has four double-sided blades, 150x50x10mm approx. The chipper is a pto driven model mounted on a 24 hp JD 1025R.
Well, I don't plan on hogging it, just a little bit at a time, like I see on YouTube. YT--very helpful. Thanks.
Great idea. I didn't think of that. Thanks.
Largest practical vise that can be used on an LMS 4199 is 3”, so your blade is 2x the width of the jaws, is a relatively large part.
As a note, the work envelope of the mill is the limiting factor, in the x axis it appears you'll need at least 6" and in the Y axis you need 2 or three inches, most of the small mills will manage this; however, the Z axis you'll need to insure that all of your tooling as well as the part will need to clear with some extra. I would think if you were using a fixture for the angle along with the end mill and a collet R8 would cut that down some. I suggest 8 or 10 inches in the Z axis.
