    1) There really is no ideal speed, as it depends on a few things.
    What the machine is capable.
    If you want maximum tool life, or maximum quality.
    What size tool you're using?
    What you're actually cutting. Something like those letters may require a much lower feedrate in order to get good quality cuts

    2,3,4,5)
    It depends.

    You generally want to use the largest tool that you can.

    The fastest way would be to use a 10-12mm compression spiral, at 20m/min and one pass.

    More likely, though, you'll need to use a 6mm tool, and probably make 2-3 passes. With 3 passes, you can cut about 10m/min at 18,000 rpm.
    But your machin'es capabilities may not allow this, and you also may need to go much slower to get better quality.
