Hi,
I recently got a VN #12 with a 2hp 3 phase motor intended to be run off a rotary phase converter.
I'm looking at carbide insert face mills but I'm not sure how big I can go on a such a small machine.
I've used a 4" APMT face mill on a Trak K3 knee mill without problems.
I assume the limitation here is rigidity of the machine, not motor HP.
I attached a picture of what I'm talking about.
Thanks!
