I thought guys like you never sleep

 

[DMC]

Well, I cannot sleep.

Woke up at 1:30 AM and was at work by 2:30.

I was checking out many things that had me worried.

Not really this.

what are your biggest gripes and worries in terms of equipment at your place?

 

[DMC]

Not having enough of them.

We are busy.

I have Four or more of every machine/tool/scanner/PCs/etc but need more.

All my machines are great and I love them all.

And more employees!

Looks like muddy Mississippi River water you're using for coolant Scott! Ha. I'd be worried too if that's what I was running!

 

[DMC]

You have a lot to learn Kent.

That is the most common Medical Lube....from Blaser/Swisslube, Vasco 5000
A Vegetable ester-based micro emulsion used mostly for Medical milling of Ti. It looks like Tan milk.

What do you use? Motor Oil?

 

[KentPWalton]

Yep...used motor oil...with small steel shavings!

 

[eyeloveteeth]

haha or my favorite is seeing CIMCOOL...omg it's literally like peptol bismol...makes me laugh every time i see it...

Scott, any thoughts about dry cutting? I've been reading for a few years back and forth companies that claim both sides and really don't know what to think

Blaser Swisslube is great! We use the Synergy 905!

So these are full Ti abutments designed from Exocad? I ask because Jensen is selling the implant upgrade to their Exocad pkg for $950 but they said you can only do hybrid Zr with it the way their library works. Im like, whats the point then.

Talked to Optimet about mod'n my NobelProcera scanner, they pointed me to http://www.aurident.com/exocad-software if I want Exocad....lol oh well....

 

[DMC]

pffft...Jensen.

Not good option for abutments or bars.

Closed system. Waste of $$.

Yes, we use exocad/SUM3d/DDG scanMarkers/HAAS. I selll all that as well.

Milling another Fifteen right now...then a CrCo monster screw-retained substructure for Pink/Tooth porc., then Two more bars, then back to abutments!

AAAHHH! Too much for One HAAS.

 

[KentPWalton]

You need 3 more HAAS machines Scott!

 

[DMC]

yes, we are not accepting any more Ti until that happens....

21 more abutments tonight!......

 

[labman01]

WOW, that would make for some really good dreams when going home.

 

[RileyS]

so your haas is milling the interface too? It's just a block of solid ti and the whole abut gets cut? That's awesome money!

 

[DMC]

you got it my man!!

$20 block of Ti yields well over 35 abutments!

That Math makes me smile all the way home.
