Re: pic: 294 - This is How we cut (wire EDM)

Things that describe a wire EDM machine:

>Swiss-Watch Accurate
>Cuts things you can't cut any other way
>Slower than Molasses on the dark side of the moon in january. (Rough your parts with a standard CNC machine first if possible, or wait a day or so)
>Smoky
>$$$$$

If you can...
>See if you can use a contact EDM machine (carbon/graphite shaped electrodes) which cut faster.

They make cool stuff... but see if you can make it another way first! (Broaching, etc.)
