    Cut3D and a Spiral Saw Bit

    I just cut part of the Last Supper with a 1/8" spiral saw bit, with one inch of depth...in one pass!
    I told the settings that I was using a 1/8" ball nose, when in fact I was using a spiral saw bit that has a slight V taper on the tip.
    What do you think?

    Hi Bill,
    That sounds pretty impressive in a single pass at 1.0"! Do you think this could be incorporated with other tools to to perhaps rough hog out the majority of the material and do a finish pass with another tool? That's got to be a big time savings compared to other techniques.
    Regards,
    Wes

    Of course you could but why would you? I did the rough pass and finishing pass in one pass...
