Hey friends, Haven't been on here in forever however your the first people that I thought of haha. I need to put a non flame cut 3" hole in 2.5 inch of plate. Its 1" plate on either side of a 1/2" web on wide flange. So as long as the holes are accurate I can do each plate individually.
So far I have flame cut a smaller hole and cone stoned it to finish diameter (takes forever), had a tool built for a mag drill that mills to final diameter this too takes forever and breaks bits mainly do to the web of the wideflange being bowed, and as soon as the carbide bit hits the gap it breaks.
So any ideas?
