By creating a custom fixture, we can manually advance a carbide cutter and cut metal inside the vacuum chamber of my SEM. Then we can construct a timelapse of those images to see what metal looks like under extreme magnification when being cut! 🥰 CONSIDER SUBSCRIBING 🥰 🔬Patreon if that's your jam: https://www.patreon.com/breakingtaps 📢Twitter: https://twitter.com/BreakingTaps 📷Instagram: https://instagram.com/breakingtaps 💻Discord: https://discord.gg/R45uCXcEv4 🎵 Music: - First song: "Just Ripe" by Novembers (https://artlist.io/song/114591/just-ripe) - Second song: "Light Reflection" by Luke Melville (https://artlist.io/song/107843/light-&-reflection)
