"With my channel I want to show how I make my custom rounds and my testing with them. When asked, why I do make these rounds, my answers are WHY NOT, OR BECAUSE I CAN. In addition to the stuff I make. I want to bring the firearms and other related items, that are off the beaten path guns, ammo, and products/company that you may have never heard of before. And the stuff you have heard of you won't find alot of videos about it on other youtube channels."

The below video was uploaded on November 24, 2010 to demosntrate Truemill software.
According to Tactical G-Code: "More testing with a Haas SMM and Viper endmill. This time we concentrated on a pocket workpiece instead of a contoured outside. LIke many of our other videos, the spindle load was set to 101%, but it never reached that point. The truemill cycle reached a max of 91% toward the end when it got really fast."
End Mill:
Destiny Tool Viper 3 Flute, 0.500" dia, 1.00" flute length, stealth coated (V33216S)
Ashtray....or miniature hottub?

- 0.950" Depth of Cut
- Radial depth of cut 0.040"
- Surfcam Truemill programmed at 400-IPM max for the pocket cycle. The actual feedrates are automatically ramped up depending on the tool's angle of engagement.

The Pocketing starts around the 3 minute mark!
What is TRUEMill?
TRUEMill is quantum leap in CAM toolpath technology. A TRUEMill toolpath controls the tool’s engagement in the material being cut to maximize the material removal rate (MRR). TRUEMill allows a cut that is both faster and deeper than any other 2 & 3 axis roughing toolpath on the market today. TRUEMill’s effectiveness and speed is especially evident in difficult or exotic materials such as titanium, inconel and hard steels.
TRUEMill’s superior toolpath is not dependant on the geometry to be milled, so no guesswork is required to see which pocketing routine is best. TRUEMill toolpaths have proven to increase material removal rates by up to 10X and increase tool life anywhere from 30% to 100% while at the same time decreasing cycle times and reducing the stress on CNC machines.
