The tool diameter is 6mm and the machine has a custom collet, not a standard R8.
Acesi7, can you let me know the tracking number so I have an idea of what day they might be delivered?
I need to make sure I am at home.
Cheers

6mm is kind of large for the Vreg block, but the chipset is workable.  You need something more like 2mm or less on the vreg.

No problems mate.

So close now. Feels like this will be the crowning piece of my latest build.
 
I'll post some pictures up in the thread when it's done.

6mm is just the cutter shaft diameter, I sharpen my own cutters so can engrave
from 0.2mm up to the 6mm wide (shaft width)

Thanks Aces

I want to see some pictures of these glorious blocks installed! Surely someone has a set up and running by now?

We'll I've just received word that our blocks have landed safely in Sneaky's hands. So we'll have our colored engraved blocks up and running soon!
 
Hey Sneaky, I'd love a "Before, During and After" set of shots if you can get around to it. :)
