Hello
I am surface machining some D-2. 1/8em rough leaving .01 on drive, 3/32 finisher, 1/16 roughing an island leaving .003 on drive then it finishes island.I am getting 2 flute breakage on a 4fluted(1/16) ball. I have a 4"x.3w slot with .5x.16 island on one end. Slot is .250 deep,island .150 tall. Sorry for the confusion. Do I need a 2flute or 3 flute? Do I need to slow down? At F.008 PF.003. NEW territory 4 me!

I can explain my problem well and I do not know where to start.
