Started to clearance my case today, Ive got one side of it completed for the crank clearance and started on the other but my bits i was using arent cutting so well now so I quit for the day, I cant find my feeler gauges SO my clearance that i have given so far LOL is the thickness of one layer of cardboard from a cigarette pack folded in half.  Wondering How much it really needs . I feel i have enough now, seeing how thats with the crank pushed tight to one end and then to the other.

Make sure that you use a cutting oil as magnesium and aluminum tend to clog carbide tools and abrasives. |

Sounds like your using a double cut burr. They will clog up fast on mag or aluminum. Look for single cut burrs, they will not clog up. You need to be careful they are aggressive cutters and if your not careful they will get away from you. |
