Part three of the machine work and precision grinding for the Kingsbury/Michell aerodynamic bearing construction. In this video we machine the tool steel tilting pads using the Makino CNC. Partway through we modify the part to address a performance issue with the prototype. This modification is in the freely available plans. If you want to make one for yourself shoot me an email and introduce yourself. This very fancy fidget spinner was a super fun collaboration project with Steve Mould in the UK. Check out Steve's channel and his video on our collaboration. youtube.com/user/steventhebrave
