This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Aluminum is great, until you want to machine it. Then it's a gummy piece of shit.
As far as machining goes, AL is easy mode compared to high carbon steels, tool steels, and inconels.
Inconel is an annoying cunt. Eats cutters and work hardens like a motherfucker.
Not if you know how to machine
Use the right feeds, speeds and tools. Also there’s different types of aluminum alloys with different levels of machinability. If what you say were true there wouldn’t be so many machined aluminum parts in just about every project I’ve ever worked on
No machine! ONLY MELT!
