    SUS304

    Hi Guys,

    Trying to machine some stainless 304 and having all sorts of issues.

    I have to cut a chunk out of it at a depth of 16mm.

    I'm having reasonable results with a 12mm 4F carbide endmill at 1250rpm, full depth, 1mm step over and 600mm/min feed rate.

    I'm sure there's a better way.

    I have a HSS 16mm router, but haven't used one so not sure what to do with it.

    Can anyone advise. For your info I have a Haas VF2 10k spindle.
