Now heres my delema at my old work we would have used a tip tool to machine steels so i have never used solid carbide on anything other then alli and i need to used it now on some K110 to make a press tool any one able to give me some insight as to what sort of feeds and speeds i can run a 16mm 4 fluted cutter at and do u do it with air or coolant? thanks for your help. "DUMB xxxx"

Bruce im from the Gold Coast i think you are the man i spoke to a while back from ferra. Pual i have organised some lessons with my dealer but was basically after a more practical job to do rather then an exercise out of a tutorial book. Also thought it may give me some insight as to what sort of feeds and speed people around my area are doin in comparison to our max8000 rpm spindle. thanx all
