    Nice job john, what cutters did you use for that??

    Just had another go at the MYCNCUK logo with different method -

    3mm coated carbide cutter running at between no.3 and no.4 on the kress.
    Finish depth 3mm both times.

    1st time -
    Rough it out with 1.5mm depth of cut @ 600mm/min leaving 0.5mm on the sides then finish it at same speed. Time taken - 10mins

    2nd time -
    Rough it out with 1mm depth of cut @ 1000mm/min, fancy ramping moves instead of plunging, leaving 0.3 in the bottom and 0.5 on the sides, finish cut at the same speed. Time taken - 11 mins

    Problem is cutter keeps getting clogged up, did not stop it just tried to dodge the large clogged up bits coming off the cutter now and again.

    Will be buying some proper cutters for aluminium tomorrow, see if thats any better.
