    Wink Cutting carbon sheet

    Hi folks,

    Just trying to re-animate this forum I've just finished my CNC router and want to use it to cut parts for my RC Helicopters in Aluminum and , mainly, carbon.

    I was wondering if any of the folks here has experience in bits to use, speeds, feed rates...

    Thanks in advance from sunny Spain.
    Antonio

    Thanks for the good info.

    I did a search previous to my post but obviously not with the right keywords.

    Thanks again.

    Try the word Carbon Fiber. That is the most popular name for the material you wish to cut.
