    Thanks Gerry.

    But when I touch the blade after it has stopped. Its not even slightly warm. I only smell a slight burning when it has got near the 80 mins use.

    The ones from China are about £3 each, so maybe that isn't so bad?

    btw, the spiindle is running at 23,000rpm. I was advised by the manufactured of the CNC machine to go that speed for MDF.

    What feedrate are you using? I cut 12 meters/min at 17,000 rpm. 23,000 is likely way too high.

    I will check tomorrow. The manufacture set it all up. Is it shown in the MACH 3 software?

    (The RPM is set on the Kress spindle itself).
