spec4 e4 Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 this time home. I'll be milling out 5 AR-15 lowers and so will my wife be milling hers too. Total of 10 lower will be born this time home. Once ours are done, I will be willing to loan out the jig and router free, just pay for shipping from and back to me or next person. 1st person is Dr. Hess if he wants it.

But a friend on mine and does said to use wax lube on the bits. Makes sense since I use wax on my miter was to cut aluminum extrusions. I learned that trick from a commercial glass guy. It comes in a tube like a glue stick. I got it at Home Depot last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife laughs at me but I would rather work it the cold and snow than summertime temps. Was a beautiful day today. High hit 73. That’s my kind of summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
