    Need Spindle Help!!!!

    Hello Everyone,
    I just bought a 4x8 CNC router parts.com Pro CNC. I am cutting 18" x .750" strips out of HDPE which is .250" thick. I am wondering on what spindle to get and I'm about ready to purchase this one on Ebay. Its a 2.2k water cooled with E20 collet.

    That should work (but if they are simple strips, I'd just use a tablesaw).

    i think that the ebay spindle will be way tomuch more powerfull then what u need. i think u need to find a air coolled spindle without the vdf. i am using a hand held trimmer as a spindle on my cnc and it is working totally fine.
