Chris' Tips
We could give you a big sheet of cutting speeds for these tools in different materials. But what you would find is that they can go a lot faster than your machine. Really. Like 30,000 RPM or more.
But they also work fine at slower speeds. So crank your machine to maximum and have at it. Just keep the chip load between 0.0005" (softer materials) and 0.0001" (harder materials).
