CNC Lathe Turning Process for an Aluminum Jet Engine Intake!

Jet Engine Intake = Perfect for Turning on the Lathe. The part is for Andrew Barth (you might remember him from the Project Egress video). The day he showed up to discuss the project, he didn’t come alone. In his trunk was a JET ENGINE! Let’s talk about workflow, speeds & feeds, details on Fusion 360 lathe CAM, and how to nail the tolerance and blending when we flip it from Op 1 to Op 2.

I love how well it TURNED out (sorry, I had to).
This part was so… enjoyable to make? I don’t know what’s gotten into me lately but I like it!
