So if it wasn't for questionable decisions, I'm about to try this and that is cut this large. It's a two-inch thick 10-inch round piece of C PVC. I'm going to try to split it. Shave them the split, clamp it back in the vice, roll it over, and then split it on the other side. I need this in two sections for a project that I got to do in the morning. It's a side project when I'm going to go into what it's for. But I can't afford to hacks all this thing and get it to wander all crazy and it's not a good idea to cut around in the bandsaw, vertical bandsaw like this, and my little horizontal saw won't handle it. Just outside of the scope of all my machines except for if I had a real-long parting blade, maybe I could do it in the lathe. Not for sure, but I think this will work about the same as probably the lathe wood. I'm not confident with any machine that I have doing this operation. I think this is about as best as an option as I have. I'm going to use cutting oil on it because it won't hurt a thing to use cutting oil on C PVC. That'll keep the chips well into the blade and cause me all kinds of problems. This may be interesting. It very well may pull this right out of the vise, but I've got it cut in a way where it should just pull it up in a way. I'm hoping. I'm just going to feed the hand to see how it feels. is I'm going this fast. Well, I can get that kind of cut on the other side, maybe a couple more, maybe I'll flip it a couple times and saw right at the center, maybe with hacksaw, but that was working. So that blade is 3.16 inch wide and because I got to flip this thing and then clamp it, I don't want to squeeze that gap closed. I wouldn't have nothing to clamp on for no clamping power. So I got a piece of A2 here that's same width, just stuck it in there. That way when I clamp this thing, you know what I mean. Yeah, hold. All right, let's see how this goes. This is as big a saw as this machine will run. We'll miss in the rams with the teeth about a half inch, maybe. Well, I'd have to say that worked pretty darn good, even though I didn't think that it would, but it did. Sometimes you just got your stuff. And I know I don't have an excellent cut on this side, but it is really, really good. This is going to lay. Anyway, you get cleaned up. Check that out. Boom. Exactly what I wanted. So I'm actually shocked. That worked. I'm glad that worked because I need that material early in the morning to get what I need to get done or to move forward on a project that I'm working on outside of the channel. That worked really well. I had that saw blade buried. I'm glad I used cutting oil too because it gave me a great finish. I don't have to do anything to that side of the, for what I'm using that stuff for, I don't have to do anything really to that cut side of the stock. Excellent. And lots of messy chips. That's always the case with plastics. These happen to be full of oils. I'm just going to let them set on the table overnight, let them drain out, and clean up this mess then. The oil circulating pump on this is working excellent. There's some people out there who are probably wondering because I did a lot of work to this machine and I had problems with it. Have any problems since I got it all back together. It pulls the oil up every time the first time. So there's a little closer look at the PVC chunk or puck that we split and that turned out much better than what I was thinking. Can you imagine holding this upright, a piece like that, trying to push it through a vertical bandsaw and it's spinning on you and locking the blade up and wandering all over the place. It'd be tough. So given the machines and stuff that I have available, this was my only real option to get this thing in half and not risk wasting it too much of it. That worked really well, a little ledge there, but for my needs that wouldn't even make a difference. We'll stick that in the lathe and dust it off just to make it nice parallel. There you go. Split with the hose on a milling machine and a really big split, slitting saw.
