    Resurfacing-How to enter Fly Cutter bit into V Carve/settings for profile toolpath

    Forgive me if this has been discussed to death but I could't find results using the search option. I am resurfacing my MDF spoilboard on an EZRouter CNC. I have a fly cutter bit (Onsrud 91-000) that I want to enter into the V-Carve software but am not sure how as it doesn't seem to give me the option to enter something other than an endmill, ballbit, v-tip, etc etc. I would also like to know preferable settings for my POCKET (I know I accidentally wrote profile in the title!) toolpath as well and speed and feedrate. If this has been answered, and I am sure it has, I'd be happy to simply follow a link if someone can post it.

    Thank you!!

    Enter it as an endmill.
