Im cnc'ing a copper waterblock tomorrow with 0.5mm wide veins for the water to flow through (WW design). The veins will be 2.5mm deep. The bit is solid carbide.

What i would like to know is:
The feed rate to set the bit at (going accross the block)
The plunge rate to set the bit at (going down into the block)
The RPM for the drill bit to be set at

Any help would be appreciated.
