Nice looking shoulder mill there Ed. Is this your maiden voyage with it?
Ken - if Ed was limited to a feed rate of 7.500 inches per minute and a top spindle speed of 2500 rpm (coincidently similar to a Kondia FV-1), what adjustments would you suggest? I'd imagine dropping the chip load would do it but by how much.
The online calcs I've tried won't allow the spindle speed to be altered without changing the SFM. At 2500 rpm and a .001 chip load it calculates the SFM to be 1309. I'd assume that dropping the chip load by that much wouldn't be ideal.
