JohnSL - Random Products | Miniature Machining at 5,000 RPM in Aluminum @JohnSL | Uploaded January 2021 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
I had people ask about using miniature end mills with a slower spindle. So I created a video showing using 1/16" for roughing, 1/32" for finishing, and a 0.005" tip diameter engraving tool to mill some text. All with aluminum at 5,000 RPM to show that you don't need a really fast spindle--it just takes longer with a slower spindle.
