Students will also learn to use an indicator, edge finder, and boring head.  Students will determine speeds and feeds to perform simple indexing while milling flat and square surfaces.  They will also learn to drill, bore, and tap holes to meet very precise tolerances. Students will gain hands-on experience while performing milling operations in a lab environment. This course is offered in the fall semester.
