It's a 0.5" 2 flute up cut carbide endmill. I'll check feed and speed when I get back into the shop but I use G Wizard to inform the feed and speed and it takes many variables into consideration so your machine may not use the same feed/speed depending on horse power, power curve, and other specs of your specific machine.

Not too bad. The larger assembly is put together with Cleco fasteners and welded. Really there's a degree of flexibility designed in, so the angles adjust when assembled and installed.

This was done with an engraving bit(single flute 45deg with .02" tip) from 2Linc.com

Firstly thank you so much for your support. Currently I own Carbide CNC End Cutter Bit with .015” size. May I kindly ask share your experience, does this kind of bits work with linoleum?

@batuhanyldrm3978 the engraving bit I used for this has a .25" shank and tapers down to .02" at the tip. For the lino block engraving I would recommend a tapered bit so fine details can be captured in the final stamp. If it's a straight cutter fine details may be difficult to get because the thickness at the stamping surface continues down to the cut depth. A .015" bit would need to run very slow and with shallow passes to avoid breaking, usually I only use such small bits to clean out sharp inside corners.

Using 5 axis for mitered boxes has a few benefits. 1-The constant surface speed of the cutting edge of your endmill will allow better cutting speed and more consistent cut quality along with better tool life. When using a traditional 45deg cutter your surface speed reduces as you approach the tip so you either have a low surface speed at the small end(bad cut quality) , or a high surface speed at the large end(potentially burn up/dull cutting edge much faster) 2-It allows for different angles so you can add relief to account for material expansion. I'll usually make these cuts at 46deg so the points of the miter come together tight and there's a little room for material to expand and for glue. This will depend on material, some materials will work great with 45deg(like solid surface) but this was a mdf core with abs laminate on both faces and mdf will swell a little in the middle and if cut at 45deg the corners won't come together without sanding or making spring passes on the router. 3- Material yield and machine time. At .75" thick you would need a 1.5" diameter bit to make the miter in one pass, not only does this play into the issue in #1 but it also means that an adjacent part would need to be further away to avoid being cut. Alternatively a smaller cutter would need to make more passes to achieve the same depth. I use a .5" endmill with a 1.25" cutting height so I can make my cuts in one pass and don't need to make a tool change to cut the perimeter, holes and rabbets.

@@brianhirschberger421 awesome reply and details. Never thought about the difference in speed on a 45 degree cutter. Thank you for taking the time!

You tell me...🤣

it's a brad point drill bit.

It's a pretty old printer, Lulzbot Mini bought in 2015

It's a 5 Axis machine

That's an automatic height added to the program, if we were producing a high quantity it would be worth modifying the Y max on certain bends...

@@brianhirschberger421 thanx, i got it 👍🏻

@@ThePautjepie thank you for your question, you got me thinking about all the reasons for where to set the Y max. -Minimizing machine movement. -More part clearance can help to speed up the rotation of some parts as you advance through bends, when this is the case the next op can be started as you turn the part. -Some part geometry requires a certain punch height to remove the part. -Then there's the addition of a laser safe system on this machine that requires a certain part clearance to allow the machine to move at it's rapid approach speed.

@@brianhirschberger421 maybe you just need to find a way to save time and be the moneymaker. offcourse it’s a CNC machine, but all the settings can be changed manually. even the settings & position for the laser protection can be changed… 👍🏻
