I have a standard X3 that I recently converted to CNC with a CNC Fusion deluxe kit. I have to mill the outside profile of some parts out of a 1/4" bar of 360 brass so I will need to make full width cuts. I will be making a couple of hundred parts a year most likely and they will be setup in a production fixture to hold multiples at a time. My questions are what size endmill will work best to minimize waste while still being able to move reasonably quick and should I bother with a rougher? I would like to take a full depth pass but realize that it may be unrealistic with a machine this size. Also, does anyone have a suggestion for a chipload in brass? Thanks for any help.
