I'm new and don't have everything yet. I would rarely mill any steel but I have to machine the base of my lathe quick tool post to fit large T-slot on cross slide. I only have 2 fluted HSS bits. Should I increase speed, make smaller cuts, or order and wait for 4 flute bit?
I have made light cuts with 3/8" end mill at 720rpm. It cuts easily but, does make a little noise.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Regis
