** Would you like one of these machines? **
We are now creating 2 lists. One for people interested in the production machine. No money is required, just send your contact info and we will get back to you in order when machines become available to purchase. You then can decide if you want to put a deposit, or pass to the next person on
The second list is to get 2 local Toronto area buyers who will get a small discount in exchange for buying the first 2 machines. You'll need to pay up front, and the machine may take 2-4 months to complete. there may also be quirks after delivery that will be addressed on site. (that's why we need local). We will come to you location to set them up, help with your initial applications, and provide extended support to come and fix anything or update anything that needs it. In exchange for this leap of faith, you will receive a modest discount, and a lot of extra help. WARNING, this is not a cheap machine, so this is really not for anyone that is looking for instantly sliding a machine into production but also not likely for a hobbyist that doesn't have a master plan and parts ready to cut.
Contact vfx@failkeys.com if you want to be on either of these lists. Thanks!!!
If you want to follow the build of the new machine and ask questions you can joint our discord too at / discord

This video was botched, but the part itself turned out great.
Cutter has a 30mm flute length, 6mm diam. It reaches into the part 39mm, requiring the actual collet nose to extend into the part. yay for fusion 360 collision avoidance algorithms :) Work is held in a saunders mod vise.
Feed varies between 2000 and 6000mm/m depending on the depth for roughing with a step over of 0.5 to 1mm. Total run time SHOULD have been about 40 minutes if we subtract all the restarts and reduced rapids. We'll do better on the back side :)
