First aluminium cut test was a success... slow as hell but hey, a cut is a cut.

I had a few problem with the Z axis flexing too much on the first attempt due to some loose screws, but the second attempt was great.

I used double sided tape and some clamps to secure the material but I noticed that when the bit was cutting through the tape glue started grabbing onto the bit. The cut was successfull but for the real deal I'll try the masking-tape-and-super-glue technique to be on the safe side.

I'm really super excited by this result. We'll see how this turns out!
