One of the most common questions from beginners is about speeds and feeds. Let's create a resource thread where experienced makers can share their go-to settings for different materials and tool types.
Please format your tips like:
- Material: [e.g., 6061 Aluminum]
- Tool: [e.g., 1/4" end mill, 2-flute]
- Speed: [RPM]
- Feed: [IPM]
- Depth of cut: [inches/mm]
- Notes: [any special considerations]
This will be a great reference for the community!
