Thanks Nick. I understand that calculation. So the starting point for any calculation is the maximum chip load for the chosen end mill, according to its' manufacturer. From your screenshot, tool stick out (to minimise flex?) of 15mm, a spindle speed of 15000 rpm and feed speed of 57.15 mm/min will enable my 1 mm endmill to do its' job without breaking.
Cheers
Gary
