DONT try it those things are leathal if spun too fast and like been said there's no torque at low speeds with these spindles.
Go with the Trepanning tool it will be fine.

I know this is an old thread but I just came across it searching on google for something completely unrelated, so thought I'd share in case anyone else comes across it.
I seem to have found the sweet spot for my machine with a 2.2kw spindle with a stub length, 10mm 3 flute carbide end mill. Small enough that it can be spun somewhere in the powerband, bigger than waiting for a smaller tool to get it all done and can feed at a half decent rate, leaving a lovely finish on the top of 6082. Can get away with taking DOC of about 2mm at 67% engagement. If you have a stiffer machine you'd get away with taking off more.
