Thread: Step 4 Router and Brass
Threaded View

I have a rarely used Step 4 540 router on Mach 3 with the standard Proxxon spindle. Used only occasionally on wood and plastic thus far. I have a fancy to use it to machine some brass model plaques and logo`s.
Before I break it trying!! Has anyone tried it on brass. Slow feed/high speed minimal stepover approach presumably?
Also have a larger Kress spindle. But it looks a bit large for the 540. Anybody fitted one please.
Would really like to make more use of this machine. Your experience appreciated.
