Still if you plan on anything resembling production save up and get a better mill. This one http://www.flashcutcnc.com/html/mach_9000.html would be the minimal one I would get for even small batch's of copper blocks. I just about bought one a month ago but I didn't like the limited spindle speed of 3000RPM max. I would prefer a spindal speed of 10,000 at least for the smaller end mills. makes thing go ALOT faster. |
That maxnc.com 15 has 10,000 rpm w/ a 1/5 hp drill .... that sounds like a very good one, but its hard to believe it has 10,000 rpm's. Did yours have that high of spindle speed?
