Spindle to the rev limiter. Feed as fast as programmable for your machine! with that stuff I'd bet you could run it in dryrun.

Hi Chip what do you mean by rev limiter and do you have any thoughts on the type of cutter?

 

Thanks for your reply

What he means is run it wide f__king open, as much RPM as you have; I don't know if he's right but that's the translation.
