Can Turkey Green Onyx be used exterior applications in very rainy climates?
Although green onyx is generally considered suitable for interior applications, it may not be a suitable material for exterior use in very rainy climates. Onyx is a porous stone, which means it can absorb water and may be prone to damage in wet conditions. In a very rainy climate, constant exposure to moisture, precipitation, and temperature fluctuations can lead to erosion, discoloration, and potentially even cracking. It is recommended to consult with a stone specialist or expert to discuss the specific conditions and determine the best stone for your exterior application in such climates.

I want to carving Turkey Green Onyx with CNC milling tools with diamater 0,8mm-2mm, what do yo recommend?
For carving Turkey Green Onyx with CNC milling tools, I recommend using the following types of tools with diameters ranging from 0.8mm to 2mm: 1. Solid Carbide End Mills: These are highly recommended for their durability and ability to achieve precise cuts. Choose models with a small diameter (around 0.8mm to 2mm) for intricate details. 2. Diamond Coated End Mills: These tools are specifically designed for cutting hard and brittle materials like stone. The diamond coating enhances their cutting performance and durability. 3. Ball Nose End Mills: These tools have a rounded tip, allowing for smooth contouring and carving in the stone. They are great for creating curved surfaces and artistic details in the material. 4. Engraving Bits: These tools have a v-shaped tip and are ideal for detailed engraving and fine lines. They come in various angles, so choose one according to your desired carving style. 5. Tapered End Mills: If you need to achieve gradual or deep cuts, tapered end mills are the way to go. The tapered shape enables efficient material removal while maintaining precision. Make sure to select tools made of high-quality materials and from reputable manufacturers to ensure their reliability and longevity. Additionally, consider using proper cooling methods (such as a water-based coolant) to minimize heat generation during the milling process.
