I'm looking to cut out shapes from Acrylic and also to engrave some text on the shapes -
I have a simple 25 degree engraving point - 1/8th inch diameter and a 1 mm flat milling tool with my CNC when it arrived, would these be adequate for the job?? - what speeds and feeds should I look at to prevent melting ?
My CNC is a fairly basic generic 3020 which I got from ebay - but comes with little advice or recomendations
Should I order different bits - which would be good bits to get
cheers
