NYC CNC | Modify a Hex Head into Torx Head with 0.02" (0.49mm) Tool! @nyccnc | Uploaded December 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Torx Head FTW! We modified hex head screws into torx for a custom fixturing setup. We weren't sure of the material, nor could we find exact feeds and speeds recommendations for this 0.02" (0.49 mm) Harvey Tool Endmill, so we created our own reliable cutting recipes! Let's tackle the Fusion 360 CAD/CAM, discuss setups for one-off vs production runs, and why clocking the workpiece is important.
