...and many months later!
I'm about to complete construction of the simulator, to flex the temp controller. (Otherwise the temp controller will be re-dedicated to a water heater).
I need some suggestions, on cutting these things:
They are:
Alumina (Al2O3) ceramic
1" long by 0.19 inches in diameter
Hole diameter is 0.13 inches
I need to cut them in 1/4" length or less. The best success I've had so far, is with a grinding wheel on a Dremel, but still very, very slow.
Anyone?
