We now have our soft jaws set up to hold the part to finish op2.
We've had a lot of people apparently unhappy about how this part was tackled. Remember there are hundreds of ways to accomplish this. This was the easiest and fastest setup for us to do to only make a few parts. Efficiency is not a major concern here.
When this part comes off the machine it is completely done! No hand work, no deburring, no tapping, no grinding. Use the machine, not your hands. If this was a full on production part, this setup would look a lot different. In a production setting, efficiency and speed are key, that also goes for the post machining processes.
