Greetings all;
I just found the only way to cut this panel alu is to keep the tool cold
with a blast of air at around 125 psi blowing on the nut and tool.
Sounds like a job for an MQL system (Minimal Quantity Lubrication,
air-blast and ahint of oil), as I don't think that machine is likely to
best-suited to flood coolant.
Here is a cheap attempt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNLuPgr7NdY
I use a air line lubricator regulated down to 5 to 10 PSI blowing
coolant mix through a 1/4" Loc Line with a 1/8" nozzle. Works great
without putting mist in the air, it just kinda splatters it on.
