    I've tried a 6mm 2 flute in Aluminium and Acrylic now. It's average for acrylic, but brilliant for aluminium. :) It's far better in alu than the 1 flute solid carbide cutter. At least for me, in my mill it is. I've ordered a ripper of the same brand to try (£12 on RS). I'm hoping this will work really well as I think the main weak point of my mill is chip extraction.
