For bits it depends on what you are trying to do. V-caving signs would require v-bits in a variety of angles. For 3D relief carves you need ball...
It looks like cutting a small amount off the end that hits the extrusion would work.
If you plan to do trichoidal milling or pocketing with a lot of fast short moves, heavier is way better. My torsion box table top is two layers of...
Nice piece of wood, but not oak. ;) Did you only use the 1/16" inch ball nose, or did you rough it out with a larger one? What software are you...
Elaire Collets makes great precision collets. I have a Makita, but I own Elaire's collets for 1/8" to 8mm in both metric and imperial. They make...
Honestly, I have never worried about chip loads for any soft materials (wood, plastics, and aluminum). I go by what I found works best. Woods and...
I would love to try 12 hours, but the fish won't cooperate. I am usually limited out way sooner than that.*** *** (egregious humble brag -- my...

I had a similar problem. As Peter said, it had to do with acceleration and top speed settings. I chose acceleration over top speed because the...
Nice Alex! Those rotaries are addictive. I troll thingiverse looking for suitable models
shouldn't the grbl settings be the same no matter what grbl controller you are using? My steps/mm etc are the same whether I am using Estlcam...
Estlcam works well for me too. Like Gary, it opened up for me and I had no issue creating tool paths. Estlcam was well worth the $59 license (You...
I prefer the "manual" speed control. You can tell a lot about how the machine is cutting by the sound it is making. If it sounds "off" you can...
That is cool. I may have a couple questions when I hook mine up.
