I have router bits straight spiral bits.

But what do you guys use for end mills, are these for a milling machine that you cut steel with? Ball end mills ect.

Where can I get some?

There are lots of places to get tooling Online (enco,msc,vortec). There may even be a local tool grind shop in your area. Just depends on where your at. Google "tool grinding Canada". Or some variation and you bound to come across something.
I get my tooling at http://pgm-tools.com/ Which happens to be down the road from us. Metal cutting tools will work fine for wood or HDU.
Gets a little different when you cut acrylic, plastic, etc.
I use an "O- flute" (single flute).
Most my side cutting tools are 2 flute and 3 flute for v-carving.

A) 1/2: up shear end mill
B) 1/2: compression
c) 1/2: down shear
D) 1/8: 5 deg taper (draft)
E) 1/2: Ball endmill
F) 3/16: Ball mill 5 deg taper (draft)
G) 1/2: 90 deg included angle (v-carve)
H) 3/4: 120 deg included angle (v-carve)

Hope this helps.
