Hi,
We have some fine detail design to do for some prototype scientific equipment. This needs some smallish pockets milled out of some 6mm sheet about 200x200mm total area. The minimum feature size is about 1mm, but to fit it all in we would like to use some smallish cutters. I read about people doing detail work in oak using three passes with the last using a 0.5mm ball nose. We probably don't need anything quite that small, but what's the likelihood of getting our designs cut on a commercial basis with a 1-2mm cutter?
Alan
