Good tool for cutting Varicor?

Never cut the stuff, but are you looking for diamond tooling? If so, Sandvik Century face mills are very good (their RA590 series).

Can run it with carbide also. This face mill has the feature where you can adjust each individual insert height.

A tad pricey though but definitely worth it, we easily get a micro finish of <5 in 6061 without even trying.

Hmmm that might cause too much vibration, maybe just a good 3/4 Inch Em for solid surface, Sandvik sounds like a good choice tho, I remember their tools are very good, and much $$
