Thread: cutting a fine line
Threaded View

So I am now aiming to get an line image on to a 19mm cube.
I only need to have a cut depth of 0.1mm to break the painted surface.
I have tried an 1mm end mill and the result was ok but it took too much wood away and detail gets lost on more intricate images.
So I have seen engraving bits, is this what I need?
Or would a V shaped cutter be best?
thanks,
Gavin
