I'm debating the value of a feed rate video for the hobby machinist. I can show how to calculate the feed rate based on chip load and rpm, but most powered feeds on home machines are either variable or non-existent. I can't remember the last time I calculated a feed rate and then actually applied it. It's more "that sounds about right" or "the color of the chips is good".

Tom - it wouldn't hurt to show how such calculations are done and what the various variables actually mean (i.e. their practical application).
