I noticed that people who have been milling aluminum all have different techniques and some have customized set ups.

I just saw this one that used a clamping method I had never seen.

Does anyone else have video of milling aluminum? If so please post here. Bonus points if you explain what you did.

I milled a coin out of aluminum. 😃
