Questions & Answers

Is this possible with D2 steel that has been hardened?

For this material, just keep an eye on the speed and feed rates. To prevent premature cutter wear, I would start with very light cuts.

I need to mill a bolt end that has broken and is now ragged and uneven. There's no way to drill until the surface is completely flat. Is this something that will help you with that?

If you're trying to cut the top of a ragged bolt flat with a hand drill, I wouldn't recommend it. Endmills are made of a brittle and extremely hard material. They're designed to cut secured pieces in small increments (excess vibration force can chip blades). Make a center point with a punch, then slowly drill out the bolt with a small drill.

For 7075, this is a fantastic cutter

5/5

Used in three different builds, all of which are very strong and sharp.

Tungsten carbide bit with a handy case that has been beautifully machined

5/5

Tungsten carbide bit with a handy case that has been beautifully machined. I'm at a loss for what to say. I've been a klutz when it comes to using it in my router table, sending various pieces of stock flying all over the shop. The worst was a small machine vise that I managed to scuff up when it flew away, leaving chatter marks all along the side. However, the bit has served me well, with only a few minor chips in the cutting edge. This serves as a reminder to review my medical records.

This is a better deal than it should be for the price

5/5

It mills out a lot of metal and doesn't dig into or walk into the side; for the price, it's fantastic. It won't last forever, but it's more than good enough to give a nice finish and mill out a lot of metal for one medium project.

So far, the best part has been I'm new to CNC and have only been doing it for eight months, but the quality of this bit far exceeds all others, and I'll be replacing all of my other bits with this brand in the future

Both in terms of price and quality! Sharpness, sharpness, sharpness, sharpness, sharpness, sharpness, sharp These end mills beat every other chinesium bit I've tried (and I've tried a lot in my four years of CNC wood machining) hands down for the price

5/5

They are also manufactured in the United States. I've been able to increase my new bit feed rates for roughing passes by 50% and finishing passes by 100% comfortably increase my new bit feed rates for roughing passes by 10.
