It's not often you get the opportunity to buy a large collection of tools for cheap. One of the really good ones was this

A 125mm, 16 insert cutter on a ISO40 driver. No fricking idea if my new mill can handle this.
On top of that like 50-60 large diameter machine taps in metric and imperial sizes.. will sure come handy. =)

:-) It'll cost you hundreds to crash that sucker!
-
Sure will and im not even sure i can actually use it. =)
-
What is your spindle horsepower ?
-
Nooo fricking idea. but i assume that thing is too big ;D
-
Some quick googling, 3Hp. =)

Do you have spare inserts for that facemill? They look very similar to some that I have got.
-
Nice find, even if that massive ripper needs to go on eBay. :)
Those 45 degree square insert face mills are my favorite for removing stock. Even on a machine with rigidity issues they usually run smooth and can be pushed pretty hard. The chips are nice to deal with too; not friggin' razor sharp and tightly curled if you get your feeds/speeds right.
The round insert ones are nice too, but I still prefer the square.

Yeah I have 2 sets of extra inserts, it's SNMK insert, square ones without holes in the middle. =)

Ah yeah the light 3 insert ones is nice. I tried the round ones today runs reeeaaaly nice.. check my storebro combi mill for video and image. =)

NeoTech,
Way back when I was using a SAJO 53 UF mill at Chalmers University we had a very similar facemill to your 16-bit one. Ours was a 12-bit and the SAJO with 4HP didn't have any problems with that.
So I guess that if you don't take overly large cuts your 16-bit facemill will work on your mill as well It leaves a very nice surface afterwards!

Nice
I've a 7 tooth maydown one running on a 2hp mill and finish is good .Only tried small depth of cut, effectively a multi-toothed fly cutter but it works! :med:
