Re: 95 Hard at work

Bumpers routed out in the wee hours this morning.

Details:
3/4in hardwood plywood
1/4in 2-flute up-cut carbide router bit
24k rpm spindle
180ipm feed
0.19in DOC

The simpler panels on the left took about 3min of cutting time, the more complicated parts on the right took about 14min of cutting time. Plunge speed is the main limiting factor it seems, and that will be my next set of experiments.
