Scale Models - View Single Post - Suitable tooling for Micro Milling Machine

I'm using carbide as that seems to be all that's available in the sizes I was looking for and the size of shank for the machines collet.

It's also the tooling that Roland Supply, and using the recommended spindle speed and feedrates.

Can you recommend any Suppliers for 1mm - 3mm slot drills?

Also regarding making my own slot drills...I think it'd be easier to just buy them.

... we're using some new tungsten carbide drills for the preliminary coal-face scouring operations.

Oh that sounds nice, dear

... Tungsten carbide drills! What the bloody hell's tungsten carbide drills...
