Hello all .Finally im on my way back home to my hobby room after 3 weeks away for work for a nicely earned break .While ive been at work i have managed to fill my head with a million things i want to change and build lol as the job has been quiet so have had plenty of day dream time haha and spent a load on buying stuff online for my shop the idle mind is dangerous when you have this hobby . I would like to know if any of you can give advice on smaller indexable end mills 1/2 inch upto inch .Ive been looking at a few and wondering how they perform against the regular 4 flute end mills im using now i only use chinese brand standard end mills at the momment but maybe interested in a few smaller indexable end mills if they are any good .My use is just basic stuff cutting a ledge or slot in brass aluminium and steel .my mill is nothing fancy just a chinese unit but seems to do the job for me .Im limited to 6 speeds ranging between 75 rpm to 1600 rpm i dont run a constant cooling system .Any help or thoughts appreciated on the subject
Regards Nat
