1:45 would material influence this? 86 thou screw, could you use thinner material if it’s hardened, or thicker on softer materials like titanium? This is such a great technique. Super elegant solution. Especially with the counting the revolutions to determine depth. This could in theory be used to make an angle adjust grinding jig. To the drawing board!
Why not make your plate the thickness of how long you want your screw, then you can just screw the screw all the way in and grind off what is sticking thru.
You have the right idea Roy. You can further speed up the process by using a pass-thru hole so you don’t have to screw anything into the tooling plate.
They are bolts, not bloody screws, screws are self tapping, bolts have nuts. If you put the nut on the BOLT first, then cut it, you don need to do anything else.
GREAT INFO THANKS BRO

No, they're machine screws, look them up; it's you against the world.
Where’s the bolt then? It’s a machine screw. Kind of like how “drill bits” are actually just called drills.
