Diamond fly cutting an encoder mounting face

[@liamf3647]

Did you make this fly cutter yourself? Surface finish looks great

[@cylosgarage]

Yea I made it a few years back. The insert is a bit worn, it’s capable of better

[@danielkruyt9475]

Poly- or mono-crystalline tool?

[@cylosgarage]

Poly

Kinda worried about the chips being dragged an/or the part getting scratched when cleaning. Or is this a non concern?

[@bendavis575]

What is that thing underneath the bracket cantilever?

[@cylosgarage]

It’s a piece of foam to help dampen vibrations

[@chronokoks]

hmm nice, but not exactly a mirror like i've seen on "pro" diamond fly cutting machines.. hmm
