How to wins friends and influence... wait... wrong series... How to make your MaxNC more rigid and for a small amount of money. We just took a piece of C-Channel and using 1/4-20nc x .75" lg. Hex Head Bolts managed to get a cnc mini-mill that is approximately 10 times more rigid! This is just getting too much fun now. Soon we will have a Taig... Ok that is a little much I admit. 

In intro video we are cutting 1/4" thk. mild steel with a 3/8" 4 flute carbide endmill at 20 ipm with 0.035" width of cut and .25" depth of cut at 8k rpm. 

Sit back and enjoy.
