Question Timestamps in this Q&A:

  • 00:00:00 - Intro
  • 00:01:51 - I wonder if anyone can help, please. I don't understand where to get, how to configure my CNC feeds and speeds. I'm relatively new to this, although I don't, I do know they're different for each machine, just ballpark figures
  • 00:05:36 - What is a good toolpath for drilling holes in plywood for shelf brackets?
  • 00:08:16 - Can you use a regular bit for shelf pinholes?
  • 00:16:10 - He says he found he can adjust feed rate inches per minute at 18,000 RPMs and get the correct chip load as recommended by a manufacturer.I also found that I can achieve the same chip load at 15,012 and 9,000 with corresponding slower feed rates inches per minute. Besides being able to go faster at 18,000 RPMs, are there other advantages or asked differently? Is there disadvantage to the tool heating to go slower? When I machine aluminum, I don't like going that fast.
  • 00:19:14 - I'm having trouble pocketing this New York Islander logo. I want all the letters and the island part to stand proud.
