(...) Yes, it sure is. Since the 1/16" end mill is so incredibly slow, I had to make some design modifications to the 2x4 brick so that it could be entirely milled using a 1/8" mill. The mods include corner radiuses and partial tubes...but hopefully (...) (23 years ago, 4-Apr-02, to lugnet.technic)
