This study involved the development of a nanofluid and its experimental use during a machining operation for enhancement of the surface profile of a mild steel rod. Silica nanoparticles were made from coconut shell and rice husk using a chemical process, and then disseminated into distilled water to create the hybrid nanofluid. A control sample was used to compare the performance of the created nano machining fluid. The mild steel samples had a better surface roughness when nano machining fluids were used.
