Cutting Speed and RPM on the Lathe and Mill
#16
When I bought my mill I was so green I was afraid to go out in a field in case the cows would eat me. I cut the same as if i was using a router which I later discovered was climb milling. If you cut conventionally with a router the cuter tears the material causing splintering.
Oh this is bad so I read, as a result I tried conventional milling as much as possible. The surface finish sucked and the machine seamed to be hammering more than cutting.
With some experience comes confidence or absolute recklessness, like Tom I'm a back to being closet climb cutter.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
