Bit of a mare yesterday. Managed to neatly mitre the chain stays in the Bridgeport with a slitting saw for the drops and a massive end mill for flattening where they attach to the motor mount, and then promptly squashed one side when I carelessly moved the head to machine the second side. I should have ordered a 5mm end mill (only had 6), waited for it to arrive and done the slots from above, but I was feeling impatient. Lesson learned.
